mei: Move uuid_le_cmp() to its only user

2023-02-03T06:23:03+00:00

There is only a single user of uuid_le_cmp() API, let's make it private
to that user.

uuid: Decouple guid_t and uuid_le types and respective macros

2023-01-31T14:57:19+00:00

The guid_t type and respective macros are being used internally only.
The uuid_le has its user outside the kernel. Decouple these types and
macros, and make guid_t completely internal type to the kernel.

uuid: Provide a GUID generator for raw buffer

2020-03-23T16:01:47+00:00

In some cases we would like to generate a GUID and export it.  Though it
would require either casting to internal kernel types or an intermediate
buffer. Instead we may achieve this by supplying a pointer to raw buffer
and make a complimentary API to existing one for UUIDs.

uuid: Add inline helpers to import / export UUIDs

2020-03-23T16:01:46+00:00

Sometimes we may need to import UUID from or export to the raw buffer,
which is provided outside of kernel and can't be declared as UUID type.
With current API this operation will require an explicit casting
to one of UUID types and length, that is always a constant derived as sizeof
the certain UUID type.

Provide a helpful set of inline helpers to minimize developer's effort
in the cases when raw buffers are involved.
