erofs: unify lcn as u64 for 32-bit platforms
CVE-2026-53015
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: unify lcn as u64 for 32-bit platforms
As sashiko reported [1], lcn was typed as unsigned long (or unsigned int sometimes), which is only 32 bits wide on 32-bit platforms, which causes (lcn << lclusterbits) to be truncated at 4 GiB.
In order to consolidate the logic, just use u64 consistently around the codebase.
