Andrew,
	This patch, by introducing sizeof(long) in the BITS_TO_LONGS
math, changes BITS_TO_LONGS from an int to a unsigned long.  We noticed
because this printk in fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmdomain.c:

    mlog(ML_ERROR,
         "map_size %u != BITS_TO_LONGS(O2NM_MAX_NODES) %u\n",
         map_size, BITS_TO_LONGS(O2NM_MAX_NODES));

now gives this warning:

    fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmdomain.c:938: warning: format '%u' expects type
    'unsigned int', but argument 7 has type 'long unsigned int'

We can tweak the printk once the patch goes to Linus, no worries.  I
just wanted to send a heads up in case the size change affects anything
else.

Joel
