Hi,
   I noticed that font locking for lisp and elisp &keywords changed.
Looks like it was a mistake, so here's a patch to restore the correct
face. Best!

Subject: [PATCH] Restore font-lock-type-face for lisp mode &symbols

* lisp/emacs-lisp/lisp-mode.el (lisp-cl-font-lock-keywords-2)
(lisp-el-font-lock-keywords-2): Testore use of type face instead of
builtin face for &symbol keywords

This fixes what appears to be a copy paste error that changed the face
for common lisp and emacs lisp &symbol style keywords that was
introduced in a498e5f8301eeb3bf7b15136469449ab4c93b99a by restoring
the type face to font-lock-type-face as consistent with the comments.
