Subject: [PATCH] openrisc: Define __kernel_size_t to suppress compiler warnings

The current build throws numerous warnings like:

  mm/percpu.c:1442:9: warning: format '%zu' expects argument of type
  'size_t', but argument 3 has type 'unsigned int' [-Wformat=]
         ai->unit_size, ai->alloc_size / ai->atom_size, ai->atom_size);
         ^
  mm/percpu.c:1442:9: warning: format '%zu' expects argument of type
  'size_t', but argument 4 has type 'unsigned int' [-Wformat=]

This change defines size_t as unsigned long, after this change there are
no warnings.
