Antti Haapala added the comment:

Casting the pointer is OK, explicitly typing the pointer is even better; then 
the arithmetic is even clearer and it is easy to add offsets in words!

However what I'd prefer here as the size of the type is important, to use 
`uint16_t` or typedef instead of just `unsigned short`, which is a statemeent 
that the value must be at least "2 bytes wide".
