Also mark it as __le32 ?

How about using:

	bitmap_to_arr32(tmp_ch_bitmap, wl->reg_ch_conf_pending, sizeof(tmp_ch_bitmap));
	for (i=0; i<2; i++)
		tmp_ch_bitmap[i] = cpu_to_le32(tmp_ch_bitmap[i]);

(or add bitmap_to_arr32_le ?)

But you copied in reg_ch_conf_pending without doing an LE swizzle.
With the proposed change, we have two __le32 here and it works again.

And then remove the cpu_to_le32() on assignment to ch_bit_map*.

Is never actually used as a bitmap but used as opaque storage with
memcpy and memcmp against tmp_ch_bitmap.
