Pointers are awful, it should be a __u64 since it's a pointer type. Userspace should cast it to a uintptr_t in userspace.
This structure also won't work on 64-bits systems, there may be a hole between fence_info and status (or num_fences in next patch).
It's probably best to move it to the top and ensure the struct is 64-bits aligned.
