[PATCH 3.11 194/233] fs/compat: fix lookup_dcookie() parameter handling

[Luis Henriques]

3.11.10.4 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d8d14bd09cddbaf0168d61af638455a26bd027ff upstream.

Commit d5dc77bfeeab ("consolidate compat lookup_dcookie()") coverted all
architectures to the new compat_sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall.

The "len" paramater of the new compat syscall must have the type
compat_size_t in order to enforce zero extension for architectures where
the ABI requires that the caller of a function performed zero and/or
sign extension to 64 bit of all parameters.
