In sys_copyarea(), when initializing *unsigned long const* bits_per_line
__u32 typed fb_fix_screeninfo::line_length gets multiplied by 8u -- which
might overflow __u32; multiplying by 8UL instead should fix that...
Also, that bits_per_line constant is used to advance *unsigned* src_idx
and dst_idx variables -- which might be overflowed as well; declaring
them as *unsigned long* should fix that too...

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the Svace static
analysis tool.

As mentioned in the other mail, both patches are not needed.
