__kernel_uapi_size_t is a pure UAPI type, in defined(__KERNEL__) code
it's always the same as __kernel_size_t.
It's also the same as __kernel_size_t on all architectures except x32
where sizeof(size_t) < sizeof(__kernel_size_t).
__kernel_uapi_size_t can be used as a size_t replacement in UAPI
headers, e.g. in cases when size_t might differ from __kernel_size_t.
