In sys_copyarea(), the local variable bits_per_line is needlessly typed as *unsigned long* -- which is a 32-bit type on the 32-bit arches and a 64-bit type on the 64-bit arches; that variable's value is derived from the __u32 typed fb_fix_screeninfo::line_length field (multiplied by 8u) and a 32-bit *unsigned int* type should still be enough to store the # of bits per line. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the Svace static analysis tool.
