Yes, I had considered putting this kind of declaration in fwu.h. But I
decided against it thinking that any function declaration that involved the
fwu metadata structure can be put in one file. But I just want to
understand if there is some issue in putting these declarations in the
fwu_mdata.h. The rest of the function declarations and symbols are put in
the fwu.h header. If you see, I only include the fwu.h in the
efi_firmware.c and efi_capsule.c.

Hmm, this is on the same lines to the types used in the capsule code. That
was the primary reason that I stuck with u<size> types. Any issue with
using the short type? The Linux kernel seems to be using it.
