Cookies internally are always u64 (8 byte values). Marking them
internally in the kernel as long could lead to problems on 32-bit
architectures, potentially (it still needs to be 64-bit value
according to BPF contract, but we'll allocate only 4 bytes for them).

It seems better and safer to be explicit with __u64/u64 for cookies everywhere.

What am I missing?
