This is that macro definition:

#define GEN_MLME_EXT_HANDLER(size, cmd) {size, cmd},

struct C2HEvent_Header {

#ifdef __LITTLE_ENDIAN

        unsigned int len:16;
        unsigned int ID:8;
        unsigned int seq:8;
#else
        unsigned int seq:8;
        unsigned int ID:8;
        unsigned int len:16;
#endif
        unsigned int rsvd;
};

It's a bit convoluted with regard to my experience. Probably I don't 
understand it fully, but it seems to me to not having effects to the code 
where I removed its use within core/rtw_cmd.c.

What am I missing?

Thanks for your kind help,
