Hmm, but are you ever going to be adding that many pages? I guess technically
correct though.

You should list all the callers and how they use long or unsigned long,
e.g. update_lru_sizes(), lruvec_reparent_lru(), lru_gen_reparent_memcg().

And maybe look a bit into why this was int, if there's any reason for it at
all :)

I'm assuming there's no weird 'let's intentionally let this overflow'
behaviour here.

This one looks correct overall, so, with commit message improved:
