My goal was not to change the behavior of the code on x86. Bugs on big
endian systems can be fixed later on (my guess is that this driver does
not work reliably on big endian), and searching through the code for
__force casts probably provides some good starting points.

The above code implements swab16() but without triggering sparse
endianness warnings.

It was not clear to me whether the purpose of the code was to convert
from __be32 to CPU endianness or from __be32 to __le32.

Good catch. I will change the cast.

I will restore the be32_to_cpu() call.
