  [RFC PATCH] uapi: move struct reiserfs_security_handle out from linux/reiserfs_xattr.h "Dmitry V. Levin" <ldv@altlinux.org> - 2017-02-28 02:10 +0100

#1589083 — [RFC PATCH] uapi: move struct reiserfs_security_handle out from linux/reiserfs_xattr.h

As there seems to be no way struct reiserfs_security_handle could be
passed between the kernel and userspace, move its definition from the
UAPI header to a private header fs/reiserfs/xattr.h which is the only
file in the tree that includes linux/reiserfs_xattr.h.

This also fixes the following linux/reiserfs_xattr.h userspace
compilation error:

/usr/include/linux/reiserfs_xattr.h:21:2: error: unknown type name 'size_t'
  size_t length;

Signed-off-by: Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>

Perhaps the whole file could be moved out from the UAPI.
I'm not sure about that, though.
