Mimi pointed out that we didn't widen the inode number field in struct h_misc alongside the inode->i_ino widening. While we could make an equivalent change there, that would require EVM resigning on all 32-bit hosts. Instead, leave the field as an unsigned long. This should have no effect on 64-bit hosts, and allow things to continue working on 32-bit hosts in the cases where the i_ino fits in 32-bits. Add a comment explaining why it's being left as unsigned long.
