Note that the conversion from LE to CPU order was le16_to_cpu() rather than the correct cpu_to_le16. The definition of FillH2CCmd_88E() is revised, and the proper conversion routine is used. Note that the original code performed one byte swap on the secong argument of FillH2CCmd_88E(), and got the correct answer even though the semantics were very wrong.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
