uapi -> UAPI (or uAPI) here and everywhere else where it makes sense.

_BITUL is a part of uAPI, why not to use it?
In general BIT() type of macros makes values easier to read and less
error prone (in big numbers it's easy to miss 0).
It's not a strong opinion, it's just the rationale behind how I see it.

Do we still need this boilerplate license header?
