  load_image_targphys() should enforce the max size

caused some problems with external kernel and specific ram sizes on s390:

We load the external kernel with

[...]
          kernel_size = load_image_targphys(kernel_filename, 0, ram_size);
[...]

Since load_image_targphys is declared as taking an int for max_sz, this will
fail for ram sizes>  INT_MAX.
Lets change the max_sz parameter to a uint64_t.

A patch equivalent to this has already been submitted:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/146165/
We should be applying that one, it has already been reviewed.

Anthony?

Anthony,

can you apply the patchwork patch for 1.1?

Ping? Still missing in rc2.

Ack.
