Assembler warning: Warning: .space repeat count is zero, ignored

[Andrew Pinski]

Looks like Jan's patch did not match Jan's ChangeLog:
         * varasm.c (asm_output_bss, asm_output_aligned_bss,
         asm_emit_uninitialized, assemble_zeros, assemble_static_space):
         HOST_WIDE_INT argument

When in reality, assemble_zeros and output_constant, now take `unsigned 
HOST_WIDE_INT', not just `HOST_WIDE_INT'.

Thanks,
Andrew Pinski
