/*
 * A set of types for the internal kernel types representing uids and gids.
 *
 * The types defined in this header allow distinguishing which uids and gids in
 * the kernel are values used by userspace and which uid and gid values are
 * the internal kernel values.  With the addition of user namespaces the values
 * can be different.  Using the type system makes it possible for the compiler
 * to detect when we overlook these differences.
