I was wondering where this part of the patch went...

I don't think we need to cast (u32) here, since cpu_to_le32() should do
that already?

This "else" clause is a LOT like the previous case, maybe they can be
merges?  Having the feature helper I suggested will reduce that a lot,
but it still seems like most of it is the same except for the shift.
