It will be cased implecitly to unsigned long long by '& ((1ULL <<
__PHYSICAL_MASK_SHIFT) - 1)' and due to sign-extension it will get it
right for PAE.

Just to be on safe side, I've re-checked that nothing changed for PAE by
the patch using the test below. PTE_PFN_MASK and PTE_PFN_MASK_MAX are
identical when compiled with -m32.
