Subject: [PATCH 5.2 123/162] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix virt_to_hvpfn() for X86_PAE

From: Dexuan Cui <decui@...rosoft.com>

commit a9fc4340aee041dd186d1fb8f1b5d1e9caf28212 upstream.

In the case of X86_PAE, unsigned long is u32, but the physical address type
should be u64. Due to the bug here, the netvsc driver can not load
successfully, and sometimes the VM can panic due to memory corruption (the
hypervisor writes data to the wrong location).
