No. This isn't really an improvement. We need to get rid of ->host_ed
entirely. Which is actually easy. Basically change gdm_cpu_to_dev16()
and friends to do so something:

u16 gdm_cpu_to_dev16(struct gdm_endian *ed, u16 x)
{
if (ed->dev_ed == ENDIANNESS_LITTLE)
return cpu_to_le16(x);
else
return cpu_to_be16(x);
}
