hey folks,
busy list! Quick question.
I'm trying to build on ! linux and I'm just wondering about the
consistency of use of __kernel_size_t vs size_t use in the code base
what is 'correct'?
I end up with the a little bit of fallout when I build.

../include/linux/string.h:78:15: note: previous declaration of 'memset'
was here
extern void * memset(void *,int,__kernel_size_t);
Quick examination shows we probably want to change the prototype in
include/malloc.h to be __kernel_size_t since the various machines
posix_types.h appear to be defining the correct width type to that
definition (most of the time anyway).
Is this the right thing to do?
Thanks!
