[NET,COMPAT]: Delete bogus icmpv6 filter translation code.

A long time ago in a land far far away the icmpv6 filter
code bogusly used the "unsigned long" based bitops and
thus we had all kinds of endianness problems wrt. 32-bit
apps running on 64-bit machines.  These days the icmpv6
code explicitly uses u32 fixed types and thus no translations
are necessary.
