Subject: [PATCH v2] mtd: spi-nor: cast to u64 to avoid uint overflows

From: "huijin.park" <huijin.park@...sung.com>

The "params->size" is defined as "u64".
And "info->sector_size" and "info->n_sectors" are defined as
unsigned int and u16.
Thus, u64 data might have strange data(loss data) if the result
overflows an unsigned int.
This patch casts "info->sector_size" and "info->n_sectors" to an u64.
