You didn't introduce this but using "x" as the inbuf here messy.
It should be char instead of an int.  The code won't work on big
endian systems.  I know this hardware is only available on little
endian systems and that's why it's not a bug.  It's just an ugly
thing to do.

(Since you didn't introduce this, it means your patch is fine and
you can ignore this email.  I am just commenting in case anyone
wants to fix clean it up).
