[PATCH] ioctl_ns.2, stat.2: drop unneeded uintmax_t casts.

[PATCH] ioctl_ns.2, stat.2: drop unneeded uintmax_t casts.

[Jakub Wilk]

major() and minor() return unsigned int,
so the typecasts to uintmax_t are not needed.

Oops, that's not how I wanted the subject to look like.
If it not too much work, please make it s/drop/Drop/ and remove the 
trailing full stop.

Hi Jakub!

I don't remember all of the details.  I remember having discussed 
exactly this, but can't find it in the archives.

FreeBSD returns signed int <https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?major>. 
Linux returns unsigned int.  So the type that can hold values in both 
types would be intmax_t.

I guess I used uintmax_t because of the %x conversion specifier, which 
requires an unsigned number, and so the only issue will be that the 
number will be very high if the original value was negative.

Admittedly, if you pass an int to %x, it's going to work in the same way 
as uintmax_t is working right now.

It's not clear if that's Undefined Behavior 
<https://stackoverflow.com/q/4664100/6872717>, but it's certainly going 
to work, so I'll apply your patch.

Thanks,

Alex
