You put a tailing sparce superfluously.

Ditto. Try to run checkpatch.pl at the next time; it should warn you
such errors.

Let's to be classic: try to put the variable definitions at the begin
of the function.

Ditto.

You can use memset(). (Or if it were a __le32 variable, it can be
simply zero assignment.)

Strictly speaking, this won't work always as no alignment is
guaranteed for char[4]. If you need to pass/receive a 4-byte integer,
better to use a __le32 variable instead. For a one-byte temporary
buffer, you can use another variable additionally.

Could you resubmit with those corrections?
