that kind of stuff needs to go to asm/

instead of interface please use something shorter, we'll see this
all over the includes statements.  intf for example.

please get rid of all these stupid typedefs

don't use uchar/uint/ulong types ever.  And in things like
hypervisor/kernel interfaces always use __u* types.
