[PATCH v2] Fix an overflow in range_to_mtrr func

From: zhenzhong.duan
Date: Wed May 30 2012 - 00:51:59 EST


When boot on sun G5+ with 4T mem, see an overflow in mtrr cleanup as below.

*BAD*gran_size: 2G chunk_size: 2G num_reg: 10 lose cover RAM:
-18014398505283592M

This is because 1<<31 sign extended. Use 64bit constant to fix it.
Useful for mem larger than or equal to 4T.

-v2: Use 64bit constant instead of explicit type conversion as suggested
by Yinghai. Description updated too.
