Might be prudent to do the same in __file_size32(), instead of
truncating silently, especially is that function too has a u64 output
AFAICS.
Also, while reviewing the file I noticed that there's "u32 fb_base",
which is recovered like:
status = __gop_query64(gop64, &info, &size, &fb_base);
but ->frame_buffer_base is u64. Is it always guaranteed u32?
Thanks,
Ingo
