[Xen-devel] [PATCH v9 1/5] xen: introduce ptrdiff_t, fix uintptr_t

[Stefano Stabellini <sstabellini@xxxxxxxxxx>]

uintptr_t should be "unsigned long" -- same size as a pointer.

Introduce the new type "ptrdiff_t" which is defined as the signed
integer type of the result of subtracting two pointers.
