I am in the process of making up a new patch set for release within 24 hours 
that does the following:

* drops typedefs
* drops the last few camel case names
* replaces __u32 with u32 etc
* drops few remaining kernel version compatibility macros.
* cleans up #if 0 code
* clean up some of the headers etc reported today.

It is my goal to keep the code portable which is going to be a bit of a 
challenge, but I want to at least make an effort to do this.

Thanks to all for their comments etc. I appreciate the effort.

I shall be pushing this to git as well as sending out patches.
