## Overview

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

erofs: unify lcn as u64 for 32-bit platforms

As sashiko reported [1], `lcn` was typed as `unsigned long` (or
`unsigned int` sometimes), which is only 32 bits wide on 32-bit
platforms, which causes `(lcn << lclusterbits)` to be truncated
at 4 GiB.

In order to consolidate the logic, just use `u64` consistently
around the codebase.
