The concerned piece of code from plat_linux.c:

/* needed for vanilla kernel headers, which do provide __u64 only
   for ansi */
#undef __STRICT_ANSI__
/* needed for non-ansi kernel headers */
#define asm __asm__
#include <asm/types.h>
#include <linux/cdrom.h>
#undef asm

I think a bug has been identified  in the kernel headers; but is this usage 
correct?
