On some 32-bit architectures, size_t is defined as 'int' rather
than 'long', causing a harmless warning:

drivers/infiniband/core/umem_odp.c:220:7: error: comparison of distinct pointer types ('typeof (umem_odp->umem.address) *' (aka 'unsigned long *') and 'typeof (umem_odp->umem.length) *' (aka 'unsigned int *')) [-Werror,-Wcompare-distinct-pointer-types]
                if (check_add_overflow(umem_odp->umem.address,
                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
include/linux/overflow.h:59:15: note: expanded from macro 'check_add_overflow'
        (void) (&__a == &__b);                  \
                ~~~~ ^  ~~~~

As size_t is always the same length as unsigned long in all supported
architectures, change the structure definition to use the unsigned long
type for both.

Fixes: 204e3e5630c5 ("RDMA/odp: Check for overflow when computing the umem_odp end")

Hi Arnd,

I had slightly different fix in my submission queue, which I think is
better because it leaves length to be size_t.

Thanks

Ok, I'm dropping my patch from my local test tree in favor of that one then.
