3.2.93-rc1 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")
