fs/libfs.c: fix simple_attr_write() on 32bit machines
Assume that /sys/kernel/debug/dummy64 is debugfs file created by debugfs_create_x64(). # cd /sys/kernel/debug # echo 0x1234567812345678 > dummy64 # cat dummy64 0x0000000012345678 # echo 0x80000000 > dummy64 # cat dummy64 0xffffffff80000000 A value larger than INT_MAX cannot be written to the debugfs file created by debugfs_create_u64 or debugfs_create_x64 on 32bit machine. Because simple_attr_write() uses simple_strtol() for the conversion. To fix this, use simple_strtoll() instead.
