Looks like the kbuild robot found some problems.

->used is a pointer (which might be 32-bit) and you're casting it to
a u64 in the translate_desc() calls of patch #4.

Please make sure that you don't actually require the full domain of
a u64 in these values, as obviously if vq->used is a pointer you will
only get a 32-bit domain on 32-bit architectures.
