Stop using C99 types in XE rather use kernel types

Due to an influx of spam, we have had to impose restrictions on new accounts. Please see this wiki page for instructions on how to get full permissions. Sorry for the inconvenience.
The migration is almost done, at least the rest should happen in the background. There are still a few technical difference between the old cluster and the new ones, and they are summarized in this issue. Please pay attention to the TL:DR at the end of the comment.

Hmm, but lots of other drivers in the DRM subsystem use C99 types... Either way we should pick either C99 types or kernel types and use one or the other.
mentioned in merge request !70 (merged)
"lots of other drivers" have issues in coding style. See git log --grep "prefer kernel type"
for some commits changing them.
This is fixed in !69 (merged)
Moved this single fix to !72 (merged)
Fix is merged, closing.
