[PATCH 01/17] uml: make 64-bit COW files compatible with 32-bit ones.

["Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso" <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>]

From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

This is the minimal fix to make 64-bit UML binaries create 32-bit
compatible COW files and read them.
I've indeed tested that current code doesn't do this - the code gets SIGFPE for
a division by a value read at the wrong place, where 0 is found.
