Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Correcting truncation error for constant HV_CRASH_CTL_CRASH_NOTIFY

Message-ID: <1425583969-27782-1-git-send-email-nmeier@microsoft.com> (raw)
HV_CRASH_CTL_CRASH_NOTIFY is a 64 bit number. Depending on the usage context,
the value may be truncated. This patch is in response from the following
email from Intel:
