64-bit platforms do. So we always need padding to the natural size to get
this right.
* Pad the entire struct to a multiple of 64-bits - the structure size will
otherwise differ on 32-bit versus 64-bit. Having a different structure size
hurts when passing arrays of structures to the kernel, or if the kernel
checks the structure size, which e.g. the drm core does.
* Pad the entire struct to a multiple of 64-bits if the structure contains

e.g. the drm core does.
* Pointers are __u64, cast from/to a uintprt_t on the userspace side and
from/to a void __user * in the kernel. Try really hard not to delay this
conversion or worse, fiddle the raw __u64 through your code since that
diminishes the checking tools like sparse can provide.
diminishes the checking tools like sparse can provide. The macro
u64_to_user_ptr can be used in the kernel to avoid warnings about integers
and pointres of different sizes.
