In the tree search v2 ioctl we use the type size_t, which is an unsigned
long, to track the buffer size in the local variable 'buf_size'. An
unsigned long is 32 bits wide on a 32 bits architecture. The buffer size
defined in struct btrfs_ioctl_search_args_v2 is a u64, so when we later
try to copy the local variable 'buf_size' to the argument struct, when
the search returns -EOVERFLOW, we copy only 32 bits which will be a
problem on big endian systems.
Fix this by using a u64 type for the buffer sizes, not only at
btrfs_ioctl_tree_search_v2(), but also everywhere down the call chain
so that we can use the u64 at btrfs_ioctl_tree_search_v2().

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 Restructured Text 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.
