'Giantkin' usually refers to all kinds of Giants (Frost, Hill, Fire, Titan, etc.) and Ogres, Ettins, and the like. Everything that's human-shaped and big. I believe Half-Ogres also fall under this.

Golems shouldn't fit this description, as they are magical constructs rather then large organic demi-humans, but the bonuses of the hammer you find in BGII also work against them.

Yep. The Knee-Capper is +4 vs anything vaguely human-shaped and big. Including Golems, excluding (Greater) Elementals.

EDIT: Oh, and excluding Sarevok of course. He may be a giant of a man, but he's still not a giant.
