libata: Avoid overflow in ata_tf_to_lba48() when tf->hba_lbal > 127
In ata_tf_to_lba48(), when evaluating (tf->hob_lbal & 0xff) << 24 the expression is promoted to signed int (since int can hold all values of u8). However, if hob_lbal is 128 or more, then it is treated as a negative signed value and sign-extended when promoted to u64 to | into sectors, which leads to the MSB 32 bits of section getting set incorrectly. For example, Phillip O'Donnell <phillip.odonnell@gmail.com> reported that a 1.5GB drive caused: ata3.00: HPA detected: current 2930277168, native 18446744072344861488 where 2930277168 == 0xAEA87B30 and 18446744072344861488 == 0xffffffffaea87b30 which shows the problem when hob_lbal is 0xae. Fix this by adding a cast to u64, just as is used by for hob_lbah and hob_lbam in the function.
