It might be a good idea to include the compiler warning message in the
commit log, so that the 'issues' being addressed are readily known.
Here's the new log:

    ARM: LPAE: Use unsigned long for __phys_to_virt and __virt_to_phys
    
    The !CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT case uses macros for __phys_to_virt and
    __virt_to_phys but does not use any type casting. This causes compiler
    warnings with LPAE where the phys_addr_t and dma_addr_t are 64-bit:

                     from /work/Linux/linux-marc/arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c:19:

    /work/Linux/linux-marc/arch/arm/include/asm/dma-mapping.h:35:9: warning:
            cast to pointer from integer of different size
    
    Note that these macros are only valid for lowmem physical addresses
    where the range is within 32-bit address range.
