Use bitmasks, that way it works on any endian system.

No, that's fine, just that if this does cross the user/kernel boundry,
like you say, then you need to specify the endian of the variables, and
use the correct types, which you are not doing anywhere here.

Why not use ftrace if you are supposed to be tracing the data flow
through the driver? Or tracepoints? Don't rely on printk for this.
