Given that u* types are used in this structure I think le16 would be more
appropriate than __le16.
Here keep the same code style of this .h file. I think it is better to have
another patch to fix them all. Do you agree?
I don't see why "le16" would be more appropriate than "__le16" in this context.
The "__leXX" types are widely used in kernel drivers and not only, to annotate the
endianess of the hardware. These are generic types defined din "include/uapi/linux/types.h".
Whereas "leXX" are defined in "fs/ntfs/types.h", and there's no usage of these types
in other h/w device drivers (I didn't find any). Am I missing anything?
My point is a cosmetic one:
I think that __u8 goes with __le16, while u8 goes with le16.
