The structure rt_firmware_hdr is wrong, there are two issues.
The first issue is that the size of struct rt_firmware_hdr is 33 bytes
but the header in the firmware file is 32 bytes long.
The hexdump of rtl8188eufw.bin shows that the field Rsvd1 of struct
rt_firmware_hdr should be u8 instead of __le16.

Subversion Rsvd1 Month Date Hour Minute
This was figured out by looking at struct rtlwifi_firmware_header in
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/wifi.h and the firmware file that the
rtlwifi/rtl8188ee driver uses.
The second issue is that the u16 and u32 fields sould be __le16 and
__le32.
Change the field Rsvd1 to u8 and the u16, u32 fileds to __le16, __le32.
Both issues had no effect because the header size is actually hardcoded
to 32 where it is used in the code. Also the fields after Subversion
are not used and the bytes of the u16 and u32 fields are all zero.
