Subject: [PATCH 4.9 01/78] x86/speculation/l1tf: Fix up pte->pfn conversion for PAE

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@...e.cz>

commit e14d7dfb41f5807a0c1c26a13f2b8ef16af24935 upstream.

Jan has noticed that pte_pfn and co. resp. pfn_pte are incorrect for
CONFIG_PAE because phys_addr_t is wider than unsigned long and so the
pte_val reps. shift left would get truncated. Fix this up by using proper
types.

[Just one chunk, again, needed here.  Thanks to Ben and Guenter for
finding and fixing this. - gregkh]
