Well ... this was debated a while ago ad nauseam:
http://marc.info/?t=117699555300010
The main objection to what you propose is that it forces the u64 coercion even in the 32 bit start_blk case. The preferred solution as a result of that debate was simply to us a macro Andrew introduced:
upper_32_bits()
Which will silently replace zero in the non LBD case. I actually thought this had already been done.
