It's definitely a good change to clarify the usage of the field, I'm not arguing
against that.

In the kernel, nothing. However changing uapi structs out from under userspace
requires userspace updates. In order for that to happen, they need to be
aware of the change and coordinate its rollout kernel/libdrm/compositor. At
least in CrOS, Chrome people don't follow kernel changes, so they'll discover
this with a compiler warning (hopefully) and have to backtrack what happened.

Given that everybody seems to be using this struct correctly, what do we benefit
from changing it? Wouldn't a comment be sufficient? Perhaps a union of
__s64/__u64 would be less disruptive.
