Subject: struct exception_table_entry

Hi Arnd,

I am doing some cleanup things in MB MMU kernel and I looked at
exception_table_entry structure.
Only alpha use different types among others. Some arch use only
different names and types int/long.
I think that this structure could be moved to any generic location ->
asm-generic/uaccess.h folder.

I think that this structure types should be acceptable for every archs?

#ifndef exception_table_entry
struct exception_table_entry {
    unsigned long insn;
    unsigned long fixup;
};
#endif

What do you think?

Thanks,
Michal
