Maybe the name "unserialize" would be more appropriate ?

This if () is unneeded. It's already in the ltt_align logic.

I think we could separate that in two parts to make the code smaller :

1 - 
ltt_relay_read for u8, u16, u32, u64 (not caring about singedness)

2 - depending on the sign, cast to (s8, s16, s32) and then cast to a
64-bit signed value. Or if it was already 64-bits, no conversion is
needed.

The end result (64-bit signed or unsigned value) should in the end be
casted to a u64.
