Subject: 9p: use correct type for processor flags
From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Some files in the net/9p directory uses "int" for flags. This can cause hard
to find bugs on some architectures. This patch converts the flags to use
"long" instead.
This bug was discovered by doing an allyesconfig make on the -rt kernel where
checks are done to ensure all flags are of size sizeof(long).
