mm/page-writeback.c: dirty limit type should be unsigned long
get_dirty_limits() calls clip_bdi_dirty_limit() and task_dirty_limit()
with variable pbdi_dirty as one of the arguments. This variable is an
unsigned long * but both functions expect it to be a long *. This causes
the following sparse warnings:
warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different signedness)
expected long *pbdi_dirty
got unsigned long *pbdi_dirty
warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different signedness)
expected long *pdirty
got unsigned long *pbdi_dirty
Fix the warnings by changing the long * to unsigned long * in both
functions.
