In order to write the bitmap table to the image file, it is converted to
big endian. If the write fails, it is passed to clear_bitmap_table() to
free all of the clusters it had allocated before. However, if we don't
convert it back to native endianness first, we'll free things at a wrong
offset.

In practical terms, the offsets will be so high that we won't actually
free any allocated clusters, but just run into an error, but in theory
this can cause image corruption.

Maybe add a comment here remembering to bswap back to native endianness?

This function uses cpu_to_be64(), semantically we convert back calling
be64_to_cpu(), but technically both functions end up being the same.

Alternatively:

      for (i = 0; i < size; ++i) {
-        bitmap_table[i] = cpu_to_be64(bitmap_table[i]);
+        bswap64s(&bitmap_table[i]);
      }

Pre-existing, but consider using g_autofree for 'tb'.

Yes, but we don't seem to have any public "neutral" functions, it's
always either from or to.

Doesn't that swap even on big endian hosts, resulting incorrectly in a
little endian table?

The closest thing we have that I can see is the be_bswap() macro in
bswap.h, but it's undefined again at the end of the header.

Oops yes you are right... sorry!

Indeed.
