[PATCH] [REPOST] enforce host byte order on usb header

["Abeni Paolo" <paolo.abeni () telecomitalia it>]

hello,

The patch contained in the previous post does conatain an offset error while accessing the linux usb header struct. The 
one attached here should fix the issue. Please give it a review, since this sort of thing is a bit tricky.

I was tempted by implementing and using an OFFSETOF() macro like:

#define OFFSETOF(TYPE, MEMBER) (((size_t) &((TYPE *)0)->MEMBER) + sizeof(((TYPE *)0)->MEMBER))

It will help to avoid the error I incurred in (substituting hard-coded offset values, with compiler generated ones), 
but I feared some portabilty issue across different compiler. What do you think?

ciao,

Paolo
