The hartid can be a 64bit value on RV64 platforms. This patch modifies
the hartid variable type to unsigned long so that it can hold 64bit
value on RV64 platforms.

This line follows:

if (hartid == INVALID_HARTID || hartid >= NR_CPUS)

INVALID_HARTID is defined as ULONG_MAX. Please, mention that you are fixing a bug:

Fixes: c78f94f35cf648 ("RISC-V: Use __cpu_up_stack/task_pointer only for spinwait method")

NR_CPUS alias CONFIG_NR_CPUS is an int. You should convert it to unsigned before comparing it to hartid to avoid build warnings.
