printk format warning question:

on X86_32, I see this warning:

/drivers/staging/xgifb/XGI_main_26.c:3421: warning: format '%lx' expects type 'long unsigned int', but argument 2 has type 'unsigned int'

I changed the format spec to "%x", so no problem on X86_32, but X86_64 build now says:

drivers/staging/xgifb/XGI_main_26.c:3421: warning: format '%x' expects type 'unsigned int', but argument 2 has type 'long unsigned int'


What is the correct way to fix this?  a cast?  or is it a gcc problem?

> gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.4.1 20090725 (Red Hat 4.4.1-2)

# from fc11

I've seen this in a few other cases/places as well.
