Re: [PATCH RESEND] Explicitly truncate bswap operand to uint32_t

There are some places in git where a long is passed to htonl/ntohl. llvm
doesn't support matching operands of different bitwidths intentionally.
This patch fixes the build with llvm-gcc (and clang) on x86_64.

Any comments on this patch?

My vague recollection is that the response was "we do not mind it per-se,
unless it ends up in an ugly change; but we would prefer if you go fix
your compiler", but maybe I read it on lkml not here?

Also my vague recollection is that the kernel folks took that patch in the
end, so I think it is Ok for us to take this patch, too.
