Subject[patch 6/8] kernel/resource.c: fix sign extension in reserve_setup()
2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>

commit 8bc1ad7dd301b7ca7454013519fa92e8c53655ff upstream.

When the 32-bit signed quantities get assigned to the u64 resource_size_t,
they are incorrectly sign-extended.
