Testers or reviewers?  Here's my review (done thinking out loud style):

$ grep -w sun drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp*
1. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_core.c:     snprintf(name, SLOT_NAME_SIZE, "%u", slot->acpi_slot->sun);
2. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c:     unsigned long long adr, sun;
3. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c:     status = acpi_evaluate_integer(handle, "_SUN", NULL, &sun);
4. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c:             sun = bridge->nr_slots+1;
5. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c:                     if (slot->sun != sun)
6. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c:             slot->sun = sun;
7. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c: slot->sun, pci_domain_nr(bridge->pci_bus),
8. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c: "hotplug driver\n", slot->sun);
9. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp.h:  u32             sun;            /* ACPI _SUN (slot unique number) */
10. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_ibm.c:#define hpslot_to_sun(A) (((struct
slot *)((A)->private))->acpi_slot->sun)
11. drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_ibm.c:              u8  sun;

#1 is a printk ... string changed to %llu.  Fine.

#2 is a declaration of a local variable, not related.
#3 is a use of said local variable, fine.
#4 ditto
#5 compares said local variable to the newly widened element.  Good.
#6 is an assignment.  Good.
#7 is also a printk.  Also changed to %llu.  Good.
#8 Ditto.
#9 is the change in question.

#10 and #11 are in the acpiphp_ibm driver.  This driver will truncate
the stored value of 'sun' to 32-bit ... however, it then compares the
result for equality with an 8-bit value.  We do no harm here by storing
a 64-bit value in sun instead of a 32-bit value.  If IBM want to produce
machines that use more than 8 bits for slot number, they will have to
change their firmware interface anyway -- their ACPI table uses 8-bit
wide data types for it.
