I'd really like to get Jans type cleanups in XFS in for the next
merge window.  Given the lack of feedback on lkml in favor or
against (u)intptr_t I'm tempted to add them to xfs_linux.h for now,
and then do another push to propagate them to kernel-wide types later.

Is that fine with everybody?
I'd just push it into the XFS tree and into linux-next. It's a
relatively harmless set of changes, and if nobody cares enough about
it except us, just push it and see what happens when people start
noticing the conflicts it might cause....
Given that's it's been out on lkml for a while that sounds at least
okay-ish.  I just fear we might get dragged into a long discussion when
then pull request is sent.  Just adding the types locally and moving
them to types.h in a single patch avoids that.
