+/*
+ * The side_ptr macros allow defining a pointer type which is suitable
+ * for use by 32-bit and 64-bit kernels without compatibility code,
+ * while preserving information about the pointer type.
+ *
+ * Those pointers are stored as 64-bit integers, and the type of the
+ * actual pointer is kept alongside with the 64-bit pointer value in a
+ * 0-len array within a union.
+ *
+ * uintptr_t will fit within a uint64_t except on architectures with
+ * 128-bit pointers. This provides fixed-size pointers on architectures
+ * with pointer size of 64-bit or less. Architectures with larger
+ * pointer size will have to handle the ABI offset specifics explicitly.
