Keep the arguments passed in memory architecture-independent (i.e. make it u64). If you're saying that the calling convention would be different on a 32-bit system, then you are also saying that your driver _is_ 64-bit specific. Please confirm what the size of your capability id would be in such a system and make sure the Kconfig and/or the code, reflects reality. Thanks, Bjorn
