Comment (by nick.withers):

 Hi Joel, thanks for taking the time!

 The argument here is philosophical, I suppose. The methods in question
 operate on fixed-width data types by their nature, so fixed width data
 type parameters and returns would seem appropriate to me.

 That said, these methods are PowerPC-specific where presumably for RTEMS-
 supported BSPs unsigned int is always uint32_t, unsigned short uint16_t,
 etc. and so there isn't really a problem, strictly speaking. I'd argue
 they should, if present at all, be more generic and therefore would have
 to use the fixed-width types or be macros, but that's another debate.
