The patch does more than fix a "warning".  It fixes an actual error. 
The caller will prepare a 64-bit argument and the callee will print
only 32 bits of it.

Nope.  hpa.start can be u32 or u64.  We need to cast that to the wider
type so that it will correctly print in all circumstances.

So I changed both patches to print with %ll and to cast to
unsigned long long.
