From: Harald Welte <laforge@gnumonks.org>

This patch makes fixes a bug in viafb on x86_64 builds (e.g. for VIA Nano CPU).
You cannot make the assumption that sizeof(unsigned int) == sizeof(unsigned
long), so the parsing of the default mode (640x480) fails, leading to a
division by zero during insmod of the driver.
