I see the same warning was addressed very differently in 99277c1f9962
("Staging: rtl8192e: Fix Sparse warning of cast to restricted __le16 in
rtllib_crypt_tkip.c"), which was for a close relative of that driver.
Only one of the two approaches (at most) can be correct, so we
regardless of your patch either rtl8192e or rtl8192u is broken on
big-endian machines.
I suspect rtl8192e is broken, and your patch is relatively harmless
(we could debate whether it is the cleanest approach, but it doesn't
change behavior and it avoids the warning), but maybe Peter
Waskiewicz knows something about the tkip algorithm that I don't
see.
