The area_size is never larger than the maximum on 64-bit architectutes:
kernel/kcov.c:634:29: error: result of comparison of constant 1152921504606846975 with expression of type '__u32' (aka 'unsigned int') is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
if (remote_arg->area_size > LONG_MAX / sizeof(unsigned long))
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The compiler can correctly optimize the check away and the code appears correct to me, so just add a cast to avoid the warning.
