The way I read rte_byteorder.h, you should use RTE_BE16() for compile time 
integers and rte_cpu_to_be_16() for runtime variable integers.

<rant>
I guess that the resulting compiler output is the same with a modern compiler; 
but since the API exposes different functions for different purposes, we should 
use them as instructed by the documentation.

Otherwise the obsolete (duplicate) functions should be deprecated and 
eventually removed.
