Re: [PATCH v3 4/6] xen: Switch to byteswap



Hi,

Alternatively, I also think that taking this patch as is without
alignment fix (either using be16_to_cpu or be16_to_cpup) is fine. The
alignment could be fixed afterwards. The key is that I think it should
be one of the maintainers to write the follow-up fix. Both of you are
very fast coders and would certainly finish the patch before finishing
the explanation on what needs to be done, which then would need to be
understood and implemented by the contributor (opportunity for
misunderstandings), and verified again by the reviewer on v2. That would
take an order of magnitude more of collective time and effort.

I am happy to write a follow-up patch so long be16_to_cpup() (& co) are kept (because this is where I want to fix this issue so it is done for everyone).

Cheers,
