My thinking was that ulong is the same as size_t everywhere. No, size_t
is uint on 32bit. So the below commit introduced a build warning on
32bit:
.../gdm724x/gdm_tty.c:165:24: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types ('typeof (2048UL) *' (aka 'unsigned long *') and 'typeof (remain) *' (aka 'unsigned int *'))

To fix this, partially revert the commit (remove constants' suffixes)
and switch to min_t() in this case instead.

/me would hope for Z (or alike) suffix for constants.

Thanks, this fixes the m68k/allmodconfig build.

You probably want to keep the "U" suffix, so at least both parts
of min() are unsigned.

See also "[PATCH next v3 0/5] minmax: Relax type checks in min() and max().".

It would be slightly safer to use:
		min(remain, (size_t)MAX_TX_MAX_SIZE);
since that maintains the type check.
(It is also nicer to put the constant second.)
