Hey Mario,

I just realized that there is a slight problem calling this identifier
"class" for userspace that happens to be written in C++ that #includes
this header as class is a reversed word.
Perhaps we could rename it to class_ or something otherwise userspace
has to shim with a C object and extern it with new identifiers to the
C++ component, which is awkward.

Kind Regards,
Edward.
