Also this gives following build error for 32bit (i686) build:

.../drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_ethdev.c: In function
‘vmxnet3_dev_setup_memreg’:
.../drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_ethdev.c:564:52: error: format ‘%lu’
expects argument of type ‘long unsigned int’, but argument 6 has type

         j, mr->startPA, mr->length, mr->rxQueueBits);
