Building virtualbox external kernel modules warns about different types, example:
include/asm-generic/bitops/le.h;
  set_bit_le(int nr, const void *addr)
vs
arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:
  set_bit(long nr, volatile unsigned long *addr)

This difference is causes complaints, changing 
  set_bit_le(int nr, const void *addr)
to
  set_bit_le(int nr, const unsigned long *addr)
makes the warnings go away for this function.

Should not these two be the same?
