Subject: minor doc correction: Documentation/iostats.txt: bit-size reference



Documentation/iostats.txt describes fields in /proc/diskstats as
32-bit unsigned values that can wrap.

On a 64-bit system, it appears they are 64-bit unsigned values.

Should 'iostats.txt' describe fields as "unsigned, native-word-sized 
values" or is my 64-bit system not behaving according to "spec"? ;-)
