[RESEND PATCH 0/2] crypto: sunxi-ss: fix 64-bit compilation

(resending to add linux-crypto, patches unchanged)

Hi,

these two patches provide a different approach to an issue I tried
to fix lately [1].
Instead of casting everything I now promote local types to size_t, so
that the min3() arguments naturally match in type.
As size_t is defined as "unsigned int" on 32-bit architectures
anyway, that actually does not change anything there, but instead
provides a clean approach to get it compiled for arm64.

I split this up because 1/2 seems much cleaner to me than 2/2, so we
can have a separate discussion/merge process on this.

Cheers,
Andre.

Hello

Sorry for this late answer.

I am in trouble with those patch, so we have with Andre a long conversation about it.
Basically, sun4i-ss will never be available on 64bits platform. (A64 will have a totally new crypto engine).
So letting it to compile under 64bit arch is only useful when goal is to add COMPILE_TEST for it.
But COMPILE_TEST cannot simply be added with those patch since some arches (x86/x86_64 at least) does not have writesl/readsl available.
The conclusion is that it is simpler to block 64bit build for sun4i-ss.
