Sorry, the 64K stripe_len is only for RAID56, and for kernel, we always
use u64 for stripe_len, thus we won't hit the problem.

The problem is in btrfs-progs, where the code comes from, we use int,
other than u64.

Thanks for the hint for the root cause, would related values to be u64
for both btrfs-progs and u-boot to follow the kernel scheme.

Thanks,
