Please note the LE2BE totally breaks the SID addressing.
Without it dropped all cells must be referenced with
4 byte word as unit, and half word addressing of
SID is thus not possible. The driver will also need then to split
the half words if needed.
I think this is kind of hardware misbehavior, and not a simple
UAPI change, so the UAPI stability shouldn't affect this change.
