[PATCH] Removing lots of IS_ERR_VALUE abuses and compilation warning.

Passing value in IS_ERR_VALUE() is wrong, as they pass an 'int'
into a function that takes an 'unsigned long' argument.This happens
to work because the type is sign-extended on 64-bit architectures
before it gets converted into an unsigned type.

Passing an 'unsigned short' or 'unsigned int'argument into
IS_ERR_VALUE() is guaranteed to be broken, as are 8-bit integers
and types that are wider than 'unsigned long'.

Any user will get compilation warning for that do not pass an
unsigned long' argument.

Commit '287980e49f; - This change is alreday fixes lots of other
Worst abusers
