lib: Fix generic strnlen_user for 32-bit big-endian machines
The aligned_byte_mask() definition is wrong for 32-bit big-endian machines: the "7-(n)" part of the definition assumes a long is 8 bytes. This fixes it by using BITS_PER_LONG - 8 instead of 8*7. Tested on 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
