'int hf' is not there to represent LL @offset. @hf stands for 'header
field'. It's an index into an array where info on the field is to be
found, for instance:

        { &hf_libvirt_stream_hole,
          { "stream_hole", "libvirt.stream_hole",
            FT_NONE, BASE_NONE,
            NULL, 0x0,
            NULL, HFILL}
        },

"stream_hole" - abbreviated name of the field
"libvirt.stream_hole" - full name of the field
FT_NONE - field type (char, bool, integer of all sorts, ...)
BASE_NONE - base for decoding (decimal, hexa, octa, ...)

and so on.

Therefore, the 'int hf' in the dissect_xdr_stream_hole is not 'long long
offset' contained in the packed, rather than an index into an array.
This index is then used when telling wireshark how to display particular
piece of a packet.

Good enough for me :-)
