+Subject: [PATCH] proc: avoid integer type confusion in get_proc_long
+
+commit e6cfaf34be9fcd1a8285a294e18986bfc41a409c upstream.
+
+proc_get_long() is passed a size_t, but then assigns it to an 'int'
+variable for the length. Let's not do that, even if our IO paths are
+limited to MAX_RW_COUNT (exactly because of these kinds of type errors).
+
+So do the proper test in the rigth type.
