From: Heiko Carstens <[email protected]>
Subject: fs/compat: fix lookup_dcookie() parameter handling
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.
