If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: stephen hemminger [ Upstream commit 77d21f23a1e4db8639e3916547c903a3b3c7a07c ] Programs using virtio headers outside of kernel will no longer build because u16 type does not exist in userspace. All user ABI must use __u16 typedef instead.
