Yea, I'm in favor of this. I don't think the 'u' in there would benefit
us, and the cast from signed to unsigned is well defined, so it's safe
to call the functions with signed input.

Because it sounds a bit weird for a function with just 'int' in the name
to take unsigned ints as a parameter? I don't think that's enough
justification to rename everything, but it's not completely crazy either.

No, not really. We added new functions.
