Ah, I'm looking in the ext4 patch queue, which is about to be sent to
Linus. This clean up has been in the patch queue for a while, so I
had forgotten about it.

ext4: Make ext4_group_t be an unsigned int
Nearly all places in the ext3/4 code which uses "unsigned long" is
probably a bug, since on 32-bit systems a ulong a 32-bits, which means
we are wasting stack space on 64-bit systems.
