I have tested it only on the available platform I have which is x86. I agree it looks dodgy. Do you have an alternative? You are certainly more familiar with the kernel's fancy bit and endian tools than I am. I'd be willing to test prior to sending V3.

That's transform is only used to cast structure to uint64_t, nothing
fancy. In-memory structure should be ok because of above definition on
every endian.
