Cast _pitch_ to u64 in order to give the compiler complete information about the proper arithmetic to use. Notice that this variable is being used in a context that expects an expression of type u64 (64 bits, unsigned).
The expression pitch * var->yres_virtual is currently being evaluated using 32-bit arithmetic and the result of the operation is being stored into variable mem, which is a variable of type u64. Based on that, chances are there is a potential integer overflow as a result of the operation.
