[PATCH 2/3] fs/compat: fix lookup_dcookie() parameter handling

From: Heiko Carstens
Date: Mon Jan 27 2014 - 08:22:35 EST


d5dc77bfeeab0 "consolidate compat lookup_dcookie()" coverted all
architectures to the new compat_sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall.

The "len" paramater of the new compat syscall must have the type
compat_size_t in order to enforce zero extension for architectures
where the ABI requires that the caller of a function performed
zero and/or sign extension to 64 bit of all parameters.
