i_ino 4 billion file limitation

[Jeffrey V. Merkey]

I am now pushing up against the i_ino (unsigned long) file limitation 
when I use virtual inode numbers in DSFS.  This field needs to be increased
to 64 bit to allow more than 4 billion unique inode numbers.   I am 
running out of inode address space with the current architecture.
