Each event stores a int to track which bit to set/clear when enablement changes. On big endian 64-bit configurations, it's possible this could cause memory corruption when it's used for atomic bit operations. Use unsigned long for enablement values to ensure any possible corruption cannot occur. Downcast to int after mask for the bit target.

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.
