This should have been done the moment Author acknowledged the revert. I am stumped that we are still talking about this revert after 5+ yrs and its not done. Would you please send just plain revert request for commit 98aee70d19a7e rather than reverting whole merge window patch. Well, how many people care about vintage Sun sparc64 hardware, ..? ;-) IMHO it makes no sense to revert this in full today. It does not revert cleanly and all the other __le16 conversions did not cause regressions that I know of. So instead having one not __le16 member, I suggest the partial revert I posted initially.
