The types u{8,16,32,64} defined in 'xen/arch/x86/include/asm/types.h'
shadow the variables in the modified function, hence violating Rule 5.3.
Therefore, the rename takes care of the shadowing.

No functional changes.

While the chosen names won't collide with stdint.h's, I still consider
them odd. These all being pointers, why not simply pu<N> as names?
