Hmm, I don't like this. unsigned long is a natural word for
architectures, I don't want to have 32 bit suffer because one user is
doing something with ULL.

A better solution is to add a trace_print_flags_u64 or something, that
can be used for cases that u64 is needed. For archs were sizeof(long) ==
sizeof(u64) we can have the two macros/structs be the same.
