This patch fixes a regression introduced by commit b810253.

It substitutes the type __u8 to u8 in the uapi header cxl.h,
because the latter is not always defined in userland build
environments, in particular when cross-compiling libcxl on
x86_64 linux machines (RHEL6.7 and Ubuntu 16.04).

This patch also changes the size of the field data_size, and
makes it constant, to support 32-bit userland applications
running on big-endian ppc64 kernels transparently.

This breaks the (young) API that has been merged in v4.8.
