+Subject: types.h: define __aligned_u64 and expose to userspace
+
+We currently have a kernel internal type called aligned_u64 which aligns
+__u64's on 8 bytes boundaries even on systems which would normally align
+them on 4 byte boundaries.  This patch creates a new type __aligned_u64
+which does the same thing but which is exposed to userspace rather than
+being kernel internal.
+
+[akpm: merge early as both the net and audit trees want this]
+
+[ak...@li...: enhance the comment describing the reasons for using aligned_u64.  Via Andreas and Andi.]
