Subject: fix irq flags in mac80211 code
From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
A file in the net/mac80211 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).
