My first stab actually used UINT32_MAX, but that didn't compile.
I investigated and found that for the kernel, UINT32_MAX and UINT_MAX
are actually the same, but in order for me to be able to use UINT32_MAX
(or U32_MAX, which is also defined to the same value), I would need
extra includes.
So I'll stick with the UINT_MAX >> SECTOR_SHIFT definition that Damien
suggested.
Thanks,
