iirc David Miller did a big sweep of such things in the generic source

To make sure you should probably define the macro so that you get
a warning for &flags being anything that unsigned long, e.g. using
a inline with a prototype and do a regular grep of the tree if anything
shows these warnings.

Cool.  I was hoping sparc64 cleaned some of this up.  I don't read sparc
asm very well and for lack of comments in sparc64's bitops.S I wasn't
sure if it went 64 bit or not.  I'll change the prototypes to catch
offenders.

BTW, it appears to be working.
