The LPID register is 32 bits long. The host keeps the lpids for each guest in an unsigned word struct kvm_arch. Currently, LPIDs are already limited by mmu_lpid_bits and KVM_MAX_NESTED_GUESTS_SHIFT. The nestedv2 API returns a 64 bit "Guest ID" to be used be the L1 host for each L2 guest. This value is used as an lpid, e.g. it is the parameter used by H_RPT_INVALIDATE. To minimize needless special casing it makes sense to keep this "Guest ID" in struct kvm_arch::lpid. This means that struct kvm_arch::lpid is too small so prepare for this and make it an unsigned long. This is not a problem for the KVM-HV and nestedv1 cases as their lpid values are already limited to valid ranges so in those contexts the lpid can be used as an unsigned word safely as needed. In the PAPR, the H_RPT_INVALIDATE pid/lpid parameter is already specified as an unsigned long so change pseries_rpt_invalidate() to match that. Update the callers of pseries_rpt_invalidate() to also take an unsigned long if they take an lpid value.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
