Can you provide some contextual information in the changelog
message?

Why are the cpu_to_*p() uses going away? Do the normal cpu_to_*() now
transparently emit the special other-endian loads and stores some
cpus?

You should always describe such things in your changelog message so
people don't need to ask these kinds of questions.
