This is truly a problem for the driver to run on 64-bit architectures.
But from an earlier discussion
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-kbuild/patch/1464384685-347275-1-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de/,
the preferred solution would be removing the IS_ERR_VALUE() usage or
make the values to be unsigned long.

It looks like we are having a bigger problem with the 64-bit support
for the driver that the offset variables can also be real pointers
which cannot be held with 32-bit data types(when uf_info->bd_mem_part
== MEM_PART_SYSTEM).  So actually we have to change these offsets to
unsigned long, otherwise we are having more serious issues on 64-bit
systems.  Are you willing to make such changes or you want us to deal
with it?

Leo
