This patch introduced the following compiler warnings:

net/sunrpc/sched.c:766: warning: format ‘%u’ expects type ‘unsigned int’, but argument 3 has type ‘size_t’
net/sunrpc/sched.c:785: warning: format ‘%u’ expects type ‘unsigned int’, but argument 2 has type ‘size_t’

- Use %zu to format size_t
- Kill 2 useless casts
