From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> convert_args() has problesm with 64 bit fields because it tries to shift them by 64 bits. The result of doing so is undefined by the C standard, and so results in the unexpected behaviour of the result being being the original value unchanged rather than 0. Hence you can't write 64 bit fields because the code thinks that all values other than 0 are out of range.
