Eww.  All the atmel code predates sparse, but it certainly looks like we
need to le16_to_cpu() everything that comes from the device here.  Is
the sparse problem coming from the fact that the code copies LE data
into a non-tagged struct?

I think what we should do here is to (a) make host_info_struct __packed,
and (b) annotate its members as __le16 where appropriate.  But since
that structure's members are used fairly often, I think we may want to
do the endian conversion just once like the code already does, but
certainly without trying to do the conversion in-place on the struct
that's making sparse complain.
