imfs.h: warning cast from pointer to integer of different size

Hi

On one platform, we get a warning for this piece of code in imfs.h

static inline ino_t IMFS_node_to_ino( const IMFS_jnode_t *node )
{
  return (ino_t) node;
}

On this target, "typedef unsigned long ino_t;" and
sizeof(void *) < sizeof(unsigned long) so the cast is safe.

Would we be better off with ino_t being uintptr_t since we
do cast it back and forth?

Any other suggestions?
