i2c_smbus_read_word_data() does host endian conversion already,
no need for le16_to_cpu()

I did some experiments on little-endian platforms,  so your change
won't hurt on x86.

Read as word data -> Reg 3 (LB) and Reg 4(HB)
[ 1529.699617] Word read reg->3:ffc8

Read as byte separately LB and HB
[ 1529.711619] Byte read reg->3:c8 reg->4:ff

x86 platform is le, so no change in output by call to le16_to_cpu

[ 1529.711634] Raw value final ffffffc8



Don't we need to convert for big-endian platforms?

When I trace the path for i2c, I don't see any host order
conversion.

Path:
i2c_smbus_read_word_data->i2c_smbus_xfer->i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated

i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated
{

(for designware) bus

// Send command part
adap->algo->master_xfer->i2c_dw_xfer_msg ->

// Rx data
via i2c_dw_read, don't see any host order conversion
\
{
order word according to SMBUS specification, low byte on the bus first
	case I2C_SMBUS_WORD_DATA:
		case I2C_SMBUS_PROC_CALL:
			data->word = msgbuf1[0] | (msgbuf1[1] << 8);
			break;
}
	But there is no host order conversion?

}
