The script found this instance because of this:

static int smu10_get_clock_voltage_dependency_table(struct pp_hwmgr *hwmgr,
                        struct smu10_voltage_dependency_table **pptable,
                        uint32_t num_entry, const DpmClock_t *pclk_dependency_table)
{
        uint32_t i;
        struct smu10_voltage_dependency_table *ptable;

        ptable = kzalloc(struct_size(ptable, entries, num_entry), GFP_KERNEL);
        if (NULL == ptable)
                return -ENOMEM;

        ptable->count = num_entry;

So the implication is that it's native byte order... but you tell me! I
certainly don't want this annotation if it's going to break stuff. :)
