You need to address Greg's comment.

But in general this looks good. I have one comment below, which
you can address in v2. If you (or others) disagree with it, I'm
fine with your code as-is. Either way, you can add this:

It's equivalent, but I have a small preference to convert
the value from gbvalue into CPU byte order rather than
