This may lead to an unaligned access.
Did you mean we should double check the block->size to prevent access to an invalid address?
Also how is the endianess guaranteed?
Did you mean we should guarantee the driver can work no matter what kernel's endianess is? ie. Use le32_to_cpu() to handle it?
thanks,
