Starting with Ubuntu 24.04, building the selftests with the big endian
compiler (which defaults to 32-bit) fails with errors:
stack_expansion_ldst.c:178:37: error: format '%lx' expects argument
of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 2 has type 'rlim_t' {aka 'long long unsigned int'}
subpage_prot.c:214:38: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type
'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'off_t' {aka 'long long int'}
Prior to 24.04 rlim_t was long unsigned int, and off_t was long int.
Cast to unsigned long long and long long before passing to printf to
avoid the errors.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
