Small unsigned types are promoted to larger signed types in
the case of multiplication, the result of which may overflow.
In case the result of such a multiplication has its MSB
turned on, it will be sign extended with '1's.
This changes the multiplication result.
Code example of the phenomenon:
-------------------------------
u16 x, y;
size_t z1, z2;
x = y = 0xffff;
printk("x=%x y=%x\n",x,y);
z1 = x*y;
z2 = (size_t)x*y;
printk("z1=%lx z2=%lx\n", z1, z2);
Output:
-------
x=ffff y=ffff
z1=fffffffffffe0001 z2=fffe0001
The expected result of ffff*ffff is fffe0001, and without the
explicit casting to avoid the unwanted sign extension we got
fffffffffffe0001.
This commit adds an explicit casting to avoid the sign extension
issue.
