ucount: fix atomic_long_inc_below() argument type

[ Upstream commit f8cd9193b62e92ad25def5370ca8ea2bc7585381 ]

The type of u argument of atomic_long_inc_below() should be long to avoid
unwanted truncation to int.

The patch fixes the wrong argument type of an internal function to
prevent unwanted argument truncation.  It fixes an internal locking
primitive; it should not have any direct effect on userspace.

Mark said

: AFAICT there's no problem in practice because atomic_long_inc_below()
: is only used by inc_ucount(), and it looks like the value is
: constrained between 0 and INT_MAX.
:
: In inc_ucount() the limit value is taken from
: user_namespace::ucount_max[], and AFAICT that's only written by
: sysctls, to the table setup by setup_userns_sysctls(), where
: UCOUNT_ENTRY() limits the value between 0 and INT_MAX.
:
: This is certainly a cleanup, but there might be no functional issue in
: practice as above.
