On 64 bit CPUs there is a memory corruption bug on probe(). It should
be a u32 pointer instead of an unsigned long pointer or we write past
the end of the setupdata[] array.

Resending because we have shuffled the code around so the patch needed
to be refreshed against linux-next. Although I do wonder why we are
still working on this code since it has never worked on 64 bit systems
so probably all the users gave up a decade ago.
