Hmm...

struct i2o_message {
union {
struct {
u8 version_offset;
u8 flags;
u16 size;
u32 target_tid:12;
u32 init_tid:12;
u32 function:8;
u32 icntxt; /* initiator context */
u32 tcntxt; /* transaction context */
} s;
u32 head[4];
} u;
/* List follows */
u32 body[0];
};

is one hell of an endianness issue right fscking there.
