There is a bug in the min and max macros in common.h which occurs if
Y is a larger type than X. For example, if Y is a 64-bit value and X
is a 32-bit value then Y will be truncated to 32-bits.  This fix
matches what is done in the Linux kernel but without the additional
type checking present in the kernel version.

Please stick to the rules.  When resubmitting a patch you are supposed
to mark it as a reposting, and to keep the message references in place
so mails get threaded properly.  Please make sure and read
http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/U-Boot/Patches#Sending_updated_patch_versions


Best regards,

Applied, after manually fixing the bad patch format ("---" separator
line missing).  I recommend to use "git format-patch" and "git
send-email"!

Thanks.
