Return a u64, not an int, from mmu_spte_clear_track_bits(). The return value is the old SPTE value, which is very much a 64-bit value. The sole caller that consumes the return value, drop_spte(), already uses a u64. The only reason that truncating the SPTE value is not problematic is because drop_spte() only queries the shadow-present bit, which is in the lower 32 bits.
