Hi,

thanks for the feedback.

Let's name IMX290 here as an actual example. No need to worry about other 
models here.

You mean something like this?

u8 __aligned(8) buf[8];
[...]
if (little_endian)
	*val = le64_to_cpup(buf);
else
	*val = be64_to_cpup(buf);

But what about 24 Bits? There is no le24_to_cpup. I would rather use the same 
API for all cases.

An additional union seems a bit too much here. Unless something suitable 
already exists for general usage.
