[v4] Fix to avoid IS_ERR_VALUE and IS_ERR abuses on 64bit systems.

[Arvind Yadav <arvind.yadav.cs@gmail.com>]

IS_ERR_VALUE() assumes that parameter is an unsigned long.
It can not be used to check if 'unsigned int' is passed insted.
Which tends to reflect an error.

In 64bit architectures sizeof (int) == 4 && sizeof (long) == 8.
IS_ERR_VALUE(x) is ((x) >= (unsigned long)-4095).

IS_ERR_VALUE() of 'unsigned int' is always false because the 32bit
value is zero extended to 64 bits.

Value of (unsigned int)-4095 is always less than value of
(unsigned long)-4095.

Now We are taking only first 32 bit for error checking rest of the 32 bit
we ignore such that we get appropriate comparison on 64bit system as well.

First 32bit of Value of (unsigned int)-4095 and (unsigned long)-4095 will
be equal.
