David Hildenbrand 7cf209ba8a mm/memory_hotplug: use "unsigned long" for PFN in zone_for_pfn_range()
Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: preparatory patches for new online policy and memory"

These are all cleanups and one fix previously sent as part of [1]:
[PATCH v1 00/12] mm/memory_hotplug: "auto-movable" online policy and memory
groups.

These patches make sense even without the other series, therefore I pulled
them out to make the other series easier to digest.

[1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210607195430.48228-1-david@redhat.com

This patch (of 4):

Checkpatch complained on a follow-up patch that we are using "unsigned"
here, which defaults to "unsigned int" and checkpatch is correct.

As we will search for a fitting zone using the wrong pfn, we might end
up onlining memory to one of the special kernel zones, such as ZONE_DMA,
which can end badly as the onlined memory does not satisfy properties of
these zones.

Use "unsigned long" instead, just as we do in other places when handling
PFNs.  This can bite us once we have physical addresses in the range of
multiple TB.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
