Subject: [PATCH] x86: make DR*_RESERVED unsigned long

DR6_RESERVED and DR_CONTROL_RESERVED are used to clear the set
bits in the "unsigned long" data, make them long to ensure that
"&~" doesn't clear the upper bits.

do_debug() and ptrace_write_dr7() which use DR*_RESERVED look
safe, but probably it makes sense to cleanup anyway.
