2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ludwig Nussel <redacted>

commit 9af0c7a6fa860698d080481f24a342ba74b68982 upstream.

On x86_32 casting the unsigned int result of get_random_int() to
long may result in a negative value.  On x86_32 the range of
mmap_rnd() therefore was -255 to 255.  The 32bit mode on x86_64
used 0 to 255 as intended.

The bug was introduced by 675a081 ("x86: unify mmap_{32|64}.c")
in January 2008.
