Hi David,
Oops my bad... I obviously overlooked this one when adding cross-endian
support.

What about introducing dedicated accessors as it is done in many other
locations where we do virtio byteswap ? Something like:
static inline bool packet_is_little_endian(void)
{
return virtio_legacy_is_little_endian();
}
static inline u16 packet16_to_cpu(__virtio16 val)
{
return __virtio16_to_cpu(packet_is_little_endian(), val);
}
static inline __virtio16 cpu_to_packet16(u16 val)
{
return __cpu_to_virtio16(packet_is_little_endian(), val);
}
It results in prettier code IMHO. Have a look at drivers/net/tun.c or
drivers/vhost/vhost.c.

BTW, there is still work to do if we want to support cross-endian legacy or
virtio 1 on a big endian arch...
Cheers.
