The header is already using these types.

Nevertheless I wonder whether ...

... fixed width types are really needed here; afaict unsigned int ought to do.

It's only here where the fixed width type is largely needed (or alternatively

            signed int linear_pt_count:16;

).

Not for gcc/clang. Other compilers (like MS one) differs... in our
case this is not a public header and we only support gcc/clang so
unsigned/int would be the same.

That would be different. Compilers do not allow to take addresses of bit-fields.

Oh, right, I forgot we take the address of this field in a few places.
