When building with -Werror=strict-aliasing error is thrown:

mmc_cmds.c: In function 'do_ffu':
mmc_cmds.c:2972:2: error: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules [-Werror=strict-aliasing]
  sect_done = htole32(*((__u32 *)&ext_csd[EXT_CSD_NUM_OF_FW_SEC_PROG_0]));
  ^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Let's fix type-punned breaking strict-aliasing by memcpy() the variable.

If any, I would just revert commit a1b594ca735e.

Thanks,

Or, how about this untested option.

Thanks,

This is a good solution, just re-spin and renamed to
per_byte_htole32(__u8 *). Hope it sounds good the name to you.

Thank you
