[PATCH v2] x86,nmi: Fix the type of nmiaction.flags field

[Betty Dall]

This patch changes the type of the struct nmiaction flags field to
unsigned long from unsigned int. All the usages of the flags field
are unsigned long already. There is only one flag used currently,
NMI_FLAG_FIRST, but having the wrong size could cause a truncation
bug in the future on 64 bit architectures.

v1->v2: The structure moved from nmi.c to nmi.h in the tip git tree
so I am anticipating a merge conflict with the first patch sent by
Don Zickus.
