Fixed.  Actually, I followed sys/powerpc/include/_types.h style.  I
guess we should fix that, too.

This file consistently uses "unsigned int" instead of "unsigned".

Fixed.

Done.  I was not really interested in API compatibility.  FYI, "Figure
3.34: va_list Type Declaration" defines the structure like this:

	typedef struct {
		unsigned int gp_offset;
		unsigned int fp_offset;
		void *overflow_arg_area;
		void *reg_save_area;
	} va_list[1];

Note all sys/*/include/_types.h has similar style problems.
