I applied all of these. Thank you for the reviews.

I think we have a few options assuming we want to keep ovs_be<N>
(they're nice to have):
- Make sparse work with clang. (I don't think it's too hard,
at least on systems where GCC is also installed.)
- Add bitwise (or similar) support to Clang (and upstream it).
- Implement ovs_be<N> without using bitwise. For example,
instead of a typedef from uint32_t to ovs_be32, we could use
a struct that contains a single uint32_t element. But there
are lots of pitfalls in that solution, e.g. I believe that
some platforms always pad structs out to a multiple of 32
bits in length, so that this wouldn't work for ovs_be16.
