Here is the updated patch which uses __kernel_ulong_t only if
__BITS_PER_LONG == 64.

Subject: [PATCH] Use __kernel_ulong_t in uapi struct ipc64_perm
X32 IPC system call is the same as x86-64 IPC system call, which uses
64-bit integer for unsigned long in struct ipc64_perm. But x32 long is
32 bit. This patch replaces unsigned long in uapi struct ipc64_perm with
__kernel_ulong_t if __BITS_PER_LONG == 64.
