I just used our
	git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-tip
and the most recent upstream commit in that is:

$ git merge-base drm-tip origin/master
6b0538da5a6ca2129b93cea5afc997226875c402

which has the commit
commit a188339ca5a396acc588e5851ed7e19f66b0ebd9
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>

In the above tree I see
	unsigned int references;
in held_lock which is 32 bits.

We could have instead (replacing the addition itself too below):

	if (DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(
		check_add_overflow(hlock_reference(hlock->references),
				   hlock_reference(references),
				   &hlock_references)))
		return 0;

by having hlock_reference() take and return unsigned int too.
