Wouldn't it be prudent to also update __pagemap_scan_get_categories
return type to a long? Right now its uint64_t, but we expect a long
to be returned from the ioctl:
static long do_pagemap_cmd(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd,
unsigned long arg)
I've made the other changes, but I'll wait to push the next version after
this feedback. Thanks!
