It is sometimes useful to compile individual drivers with optimization
disabled for easier debugging. Currently drivers which use htonl() and
similar functions don't compile with -O0. This patch fixes it.
It also removes obsolete and misleading comments. This header is not
for userspace, so we don't have to care about strange programs these
comments mention.
