Ok - one vote for cpumask_t.
I could go either way. I see that 'struct foo' is more common than 'foo_t' in kernel code.
I will not actually propose to change cpumask_t to 'struct cpumask' unless others want it. Without a half-way decent reason, it would just be stupid churning. But I wouldn't put up much resistance to such a change.

In my view, right - you (seldom) need to look inside. From what I can make of Rusty's statements so far, he apparently has a different view ;).
We'll see.
