The code has been tested on 32 and 64 bit in lots of places, however I
don't generally trawl the Fedora
kernel build logs, and the amount of warnings we have there, new ones
just get lost in the mists..

So its not untested on 64-bit, its just nobody who cared enough saw
the compiler warnings. If linux-next had been
going for the past few weeks someone would have spotted them, I just
got the report yesterday from linux-next after I fed the push request.

Perhaps we all need access to the Ingo compile farm.

Dave.
