Using 16-bit ->hh_len doesn't save any memory, save some .text instead:

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 1/6 up/down: 2/-19 (-17)
	function                                     old     new   delta
	neigh_update                                2312    2314      +2
	fwnet_header_cache                           199     197      -2
	eth_header_cache                             101      99      -2
	ip6_finish_output2                          2371    2368      -3
	vrf_finish_output6                          1522    1518      -4
	vrf_finish_output                           1413    1409      -4
	ip_finish_output2                           1627    1623      -4
