I like being explicit :)

core::mem::size_of gives us a usize. So this ensures it's little
endian then casts it to a u16.

We could cast it to a __le16. u16 is a standard Rust type (compared to
__le16 which is a internal kernel type), so I prefer u16 as it matches
other Rust implementations.

Same as above

Yeah, I think this is wrong
