4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 6f64ec74515925cced6df4571638b5a099a49aae upstream. Similar to the fix provided by Dominik Heidler in commit 9b3dc0a17d73 ("l2tp: cast l2tp traffic counter to unsigned") we need to take care of 32bit kernels in dev_get_stats(). When using atomic_long_read(), we add a 'long' to u64 and might misinterpret high order bit, unless we cast to unsigned. Fixes: caf586e5f23ce ("net: add a core netdev->rx_dropped counter") Fixes: 015f0688f57ca ("net: net: add a core netdev->tx_dropped counter") Fixes: 6e7333d315a76 ("net: add rx_nohandler stat counter") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jarod Wilson <jarod@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
