[ovs-dev] [tun_id64 3/4] datapath: Add __aligned_u64 compat support for user and kernel headers.

[Ben Pfaff]

__aligned_u64 is a 64-bit integer type that is guaranteed to be aligned on
a 64-bit boundary.  It is used in ABI structures to allow them to be shared
between 32- and 64-bit userspace without the need for kernel compat code.
The first use in OVS is coming up in this series of patches.
