Good point.

How about something like this?
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] Define __aligned_{u64,le64,be64} types with 8-byte alignment
Convert the existing #defines into typedefs, prepend two underscores to
avoid POSIX namespace pollution, and expose the types to user space.
These types are useful for enforcing the same alignment on 32-bit and
64-bit architectures. (Some 32-bit architectures only align 64-bit
values on 4-byte boundaries by default.)
(The aligned types are used by some netfilter user-space headers
already.)
