opaque types instead of union epoll_data

[Sodagudi Prasad]

Hi All,

uapi structs epoll_data are more opaque than user space expects. kernel 
have defined as __u64 instead of the union epoll_data.
Because of this libc have redefined struct epoll_event with union data 
member.

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bionic.git/+/master/libc/include/sys/epoll.h
typedef union epoll_data {
  void* ptr;
  int fd;
  uint32_t u32;
  uint64_t u64;
} epoll_data_t;
struct epoll_event {
  uint32_t events;
  epoll_data_t data;
}

Kernel UAPI header defined as "include/uapi/linux/eventpoll.h"
struct epoll_event {
        __u32 events;
        __u64 data;  =====>opaque type instead of union epoll_data
} EPOLL_PACKED;


Because of this we are landing into some issues as we copy kernel 
headers. Will it be going to be addressed?
