IB/uverbs: UAPI pointers should use __aligned_u64 type
The ioctl() UAPIs are meant to be used by both user-space and kernel ioctl() handlers. Mostly, these UAPI structs tend to consist of simple types, but sometimes user-space pointers may be passed between user-space and kernel. We would like to avoid dereferencing a user-space pointer in the kernel, thus - we always define RDMA_UAPI_PTR as a __aligned_u64 type.
