Subject: mm/mprotect: use long for page accountings and retval
Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2023 17:52:06 -0500
Switch to use type "long" for page accountings and retval across the whole
procedure of change_protection().
The change should have shrinked the possible maximum page number to be
half comparing to previous (ULONG_MAX / 2), but it shouldn't overflow on
any system either because the maximum possible pages touched by change
protection should be ULONG_MAX / PAGE_SIZE.
Two reasons to switch from "unsigned long" to "long":
1. It suites better on count_vm_numa_events(), whose 2nd parameter takes
a long type.
2. It paves way for returning negative (error) values in the future.
Currently the only caller that consumes this retval is change_prot_numa(),
where the unsigned long was converted to an int. Since at it, touching up
the numa code to also take a long, so it'll avoid any possible overflow
too during the int-size convertion.
