From: Li Zhang <zhlcindy(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com>
vol-clone reports out of memory error with disk type on ppc64.
Currently, wbytes is defined as size_t type which is 8 bytes on ppc64,
but args's value in ioctl(fd, args..) in kernel is unsigned int.
So it will read more 4 bytes by ioctl() with size_t from memory which
gets a large number and causes out of memory error.
This patch changes size_t to unsigned int to synchronize with kernel.
