[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] savevm.c: Fix compilation error on 32bit host.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] savevm.c: Fix compilation error on 32bit host.

[Evgeny Voevodin]

Casting of 0x0101010101010101ULL to long will truncate it to 32
bits on 32bit hosts, and won't truncate on 64bit hosts.

Don't be afraid, it's true. I didn't see it in the mailing list and
didn't know that the bug is already fixed there.

Including slen too - the function parameter...
