[dm-devel] [RFC PATCH v2 1/2] kpartx: Use fixed size types in struct solaris_x86_slice

struct solaris_x86_slice defined in kernel uses fixed size types
(with specified byte order). We're not able to find original 32-bit
x86 Solaris sources, but expect struct definition in kernel is correct,
therefore use it as a source of size of struct items. (just don't use
original kernel byte order fixed types __le{16,32}, but normal user
space fixed size types)

129e6fe6 used __kernel_daddr_t instead of one of these: long / int / daddr_t,
which is IMHO wrong and tried to address only s_start struct member.

Fixes: 129e6fe6 ("kpartx: Use __kernel_daddr_t for solaris_x86_slice.s_start")

changes v1->v2:
* use user space types __le{16,32} => uint{16,32}_t
