[PATCH 1/1] UIO: unbreak uio.h userspace compilation

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Tue Jul 28 2009 - 09:14:44 EST


To avoid userspace build failures such as:
.../linux/uio.h:37: error: expected â=â, â,â, â;â, âasmâ or â__attribute__â before âiov_lengthâ
.../linux/uio.h:47: error: expected declaration specifiers or â...â before âsize_tâ
move one uio declaration inside a __KERNEL__ block and use __kernel_size_t
instead of size_t for iov_length (it's inlined and used in userspace already).
