Subject: [net-next][PATCH v1] RDS: keep data type consistent in the user visible header

rds.h is exported to /usr/include/rds.h,  so u8, u64 leads to
errors like below.

/usr/include/linux/rds.h:197: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'u8'
/usr/include/linux/rds.h:202: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'u8'

Fix it by following same types as rest of the user header.
