Ohhh, yes you are right. This is the correct thing to do.
This patch which is been used has some endian-ness bugs. I had sent an
updated patch for 2.6.22-rc5 on 
19 June. I think we should be using the updated patch else it may break
on big-endian machines. 
Even the updated patch has this bug i.e "struct commit_header *tmp
=...."

Thanks,
