This doesn't compile without the next patch.

This we made just an __le16, any particular reason to have the struct?
It does need to be a pointer for the "no changes" case, but the struct
seems a bit overkill?

That we have pretty much identically.

This not, we defined it just to be a U16.

This no longer exists, but I guess I'll just take our patch for the U16
here.

Not sure this makes much sense? We can only check what's being set at
the same time, so multiple calls here would still be possible ...
doesn't hurt much though.
We didn't have this check, and have one additional check:
