I accidentally broke android binder.h:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220601010017.2639048-1-cmllamas@google.com/
I checked my previous conversions, and found some more.
(at least, the sparc one seems fatal.)
Masahiro Yamada (3):
mips: use __kernel_{uid,gid}32_t in uapi/asm/stat.h
powerpc: use __kernel_{uid,gid}32_t in uapi/asm/stat.h
sparc: fix mis-use of __kernel_{uid,gid}_t in uapi/asm/stat.h

Commit c01013a2f8dd ("powerpc: add asm/stat.h to UAPI compile-test
coverage") converted as follows:
uid_t --> __kernel_uid_t
gid_t --> __kernel_gid_t
The bit width of __kernel_{uid,gid}_t is 16 or 32-bits depending on
architectures.
PPC uses 32-bits for them as in include/uapi/asm-generic/posix_types.h,
so the previous conversion is probably fine, but let's stick to the
arch-independent conversion just in case.
The safe replacements across all architectures are:
uid_t --> __kernel_uid32_t
gid_t --> __kernel_gid32_t
as defined in include/linux/types.h.
A similar issue was reported for the android binder. [1]
