So *only* for a 32-bit guest does this cast from signed int to unsigned int and then to unsigned long, avoiding the sign extension on 64-bit host. For 64-bit guests it remains as broken as before. Commit message could be clearer. Reviewed-by: Andreas Färber <afaer...@suse.de> Note that unsigned long would be wrong for Win64 (where we don't currently have any user emulation using this macro). uintptr_t would be cleaner.
