Yes, but be32_to_cpu wants a be32 and there is another functions which only
does a 16 bit access on rx, so we'd need to cast and things get messy. Also for
tx we store first a 16bit value and then a 32bit value and while it is possible
to get this properly aligned this gets a bit messy too. I think we are fine
with {get,set}_unaligned for now.
