The problem is the (__be32 *) casts. This is a normal pointer to a 32-bit, which is assumed to be aligned, and the cast overrides the packed attribute from the struct. Dereferencing these cast expressions must be done with the macros from asm/unaligned.h
Again, not going to happen. DaveM is on record for saying as much, but I guess you're going to reject that as well, so I'm not sure why I'm even bothering to reply.
