I dislike the asymmetric use of

p_dst being incremented by 3 and
p_src being incremented by 2 here

Is it really useful to have these macros do
any increments of arguments?

Why not a static inline and use a variant of
__be16_to_cpu/cpu_to_be16

I find this use obscure where buf_dst and buf_src are
both modified with an addition by the macro.
