I would think that uintN_t should be used in preference to u_intN_t
since the former is a standard part of C and the latter comes from
some Linux kernal internal convention (I think).
See stdint.h(0P)
Why do we use u_* so often?
u_* may well make sense for kernel interfaces. It depends how they
are documented (huh!).
u_* seems wrong for things in ietf_constants.h.
