Alex Bennée (ajbennee) wrote : [RFC PATCH] cputlb: use uint64_t for interim values for unaligned load

When running on 32 bit TCG backends a wide unaligned load ends up
truncating data before returning to the guest. We specifically have
the return type as uint64_t to avoid any premature truncation so we
should use the same for the interim types.

Hopefully fixes #1830872
