This patch defines:
* a generic boolean-type, named 'bool'
* aliases to 0 and 1, named 'false' and 'true'

Removing colliding definitions of 'bool', 'false' and 'true'.

Introduce the Kconfig entry and actually switch to a 64bit value, if
wanted, for resource_size_t.

<title>[PATCH] 2TB files: add blkcnt_t</title>

Add blkcnt_t as the type of inode.i_blocks.  This enables you to make the size
of blkcnt_t either 4 bytes or 8 bytes on 32 bits architecture with CONFIG_LSF.

- CONFIG_LSF
  Add new configuration parameter.
- blkcnt_t
  On h8300, i386, mips, powerpc, s390 and sh that define sector_t,
  blkcnt_t is defined as u64 if CONFIG_LSF is enabled; otherwise it is
  defined as unsigned long.
  On other architectures, it is defined as unsigned long.
- inode.i_blocks
  Change the type from sector_t to blkcnt_t.

Beginning of gfp_t annotations:

 - -Wbitwise added to CHECKFLAGS
 - old __bitwise renamed to __bitwise__
 - __bitwise defined to either __bitwise__ or nothing, depending on
   __CHECK_ENDIAN__ being defined
 - gfp_t switched from __nocast to __bitwise__
 - force cast to gfp_t added to __GFP_... constants
 - new helper - gfp_zone(); extracts zone bits out of gfp_t value and casts
   the result to int

 - added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;

 - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
   the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
   generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
   typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

As proposed by Andi Kleen, this is required esp. for x86_64 architecture,
where 64bit code needs 8byte aligned 64bit data types, but 32bit userspace
apps will only align to 4bytes.
