Subject: [PATCH] um: always use the same type for __syscall_stub_start

syscall_stub_start is declared with different types in C files:

  arch/um/kernel/physmem.c: extern int __syscall_stub_start;
  arch/um/kernel/skas/mmu.c: extern int __syscall_stub_start;
  arch/um/os-Linux/skas/mem.c: extern unsigned long __syscall_stub_start;
  arch/um/os-Linux/skas/process.c: extern int __syscall_stub_start;

Fix this inconsistency by always using unsigned long.  This does not
change anything in the compiled code because only the address of
__syscall_stub_start is used, but it makes the static checker I use
stop complaining about incompatible declarations.
