[hackers] [PATCH] Remove superfluous byteorder conversion

From: Thomas Oltmann <thomas.oltmann.hhg_AT_gmail.com>

When comparing IPv4 addresses in sock_same_addr() we don't need
to correct their byteorder just to see if they are equal or not.
Byte swapping would only be needed if we needed to know
which address had the greater value.
