[PATCH 2/3] writeback: fix incorrect return value type of bdi_dirty_limit

From: Namjae Jeon
Date: Sat Aug 18 2012 - 05:49:27 EST


unsigned long bdi_dirty_limit(struct backing_dev_info *bdi, unsigned long dirty)

Above function return type is unsigned long, but return value is
kept in "u64 bdi_dirty".
It can return incorrect value by type casting.
