3.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Axel Lin <axel.lin@ingics.com>
commit 2565fb05d1e9fc0831f7b1c083bcfcb1cba1f020 upstream.
On platforms with sizeof(int) < sizeof(unsigned long), writing a rpm value larger than MAXINT will result in unpredictable limit values written to the chip. Avoid auto-conversion from unsigned long to int to fix the problem.
