Prior to IPA v5.0, there could be no more than 32 endpoints. A filter table begins with a bitmap indicating which endpoints have a filter defined. That bitmap is currently assumed to fit in a 32-bit value. Starting with IPA v5.0, more than 32 endpoints are supported, so it's conceivable that a TX endpoint has an ID that exceeds 32. Increase the size of the field representing endpoints that support filtering to 64 bits. Rename the bitmap field "filtered". Unlike other similar fields, we do not use an (arbitrarily long) Linux bitmap for this purpose. The reason is that if a filter table ever *did* need to support more than 64 TX endpoints, its format would change in ways we can't anticipate. Have ipa_endpoint_init() return a negative errno rather than a mask that indicates which endpoints support filtering, and have that function assign the "filtered" field directly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
