Subject: tools/include: Add byteshift headers for endian access
From: Matt Fleming <[email protected]>
commit a07f7672d7cf0ff0d6e548a9feb6e0bd016d9c6c upstream.
There are various hostprogs in the kernel that are rolling their own
implementations of {get,put}_unaligned_le*(). Copy the byteshift
headers from include/linux/unaligned so that they can all use a single
implementation.
This requires changing some of the data types to the userspace
exported ones (u32 -> __u32, etc).
