Since end is a local variable I would strongly prefer to just have it
use the correct type for it.
Otherwise we might end up using something which doesn't work on all
architectures.
They all appear to be "unsigned long". I thought, since we assign to
hmm_range->end, we use that type.
Mhm, then why does the compiler complain here?
Right... so MAX_WALK_BYTE is 2^36 ULL (diabolically defined as 64ULL<<30 :-) ),
and this is why the minmax check complains.
So, since the left-hand expression is unsigned long,
i.e.,
hmm_range->end = min(hmm_range->start + MAX_WALK_BYTE, end);
is,
unsigned long = min(unsigned long long, unsigned long);
The compiler complains.
I'd really prefer MAX_WALK_BYTE be less than or equal to ULONG_MAX,
That's not only a preference, but a must have. Otherwise the code maybe
won't work as expected on 32bit architectures.
and be defined as <literal>UL. I mean, why is everything in struct hmm_range
"unsigned long", but we set a high limit of 10_0000_0000h for an end, and
compare it to "end" to find the smaller? If our "end" could potentially
be 10_0000_0000h then shouldn't the members in struct hmm_range be
unsigned long long as well?
No, that the hmm range depends on the address space bits of the CPU is
perfectly correct. Essentially this is just an userspace address range.
Our problem here is that this code needs to work on both 32bit and 64bit
systems. And on a 32bit system limiting the types wouldn't work
correctly as far as I can see.
So the compiler is complaining for rather good reasons and by using
"min_t(UL" we just hide that instead of fixing the problem.
I suggest to use "min_t(u64" instead. An intelligent compiler should
even be capable of optimizing this away by looking at the input types on
32bit archs.
And for the timeout, we have the (now) obvious,
timeout = max((hmm_range->end - hmm_range->start) >> 29, 1ULL);
and I don't know why we necessarily need a "1ULL", when 1UL would do just fine,
and then compilation passes for that statement. I can set this to 1UL, instead
of using max_t().
I think just changing this to 1UL should be sufficient.

As far as I can see "unsigned long" is correct here, but if we somehow
have a typecast then something is not working as expected.
Is MAX_WALK_BYTE maybe of signed type?
Would you prefer at the top of the function to define "timeout" and "end" as,
typeof(hmm_range->end) end, timeout;
Well for end that might make sense, but timeout is independent of the
hmm range.
