It was kept as unsigned int because hartid > INT_MAX is very unlikely to happen.
But I agree that we should just follow the spec(allowing XLEN bits for
hartid) and
change "unsigned int" to "unsigned long" wherever hartid is concerned.

As the hartid is changed to unsigned long, get_boot_hartid_from_fdt
should be fixed as well.
Currently, it is using fdt32_to_cpu.
