Description

NodeState#getChildeNodeEntries uses long for its lenght parameter while MicroKernel#getNodes uses int. In order to implement the NodeState interface on top of the Microkernel, it would be favourable if the type would be the same.

I suggest we change it to int for both methods since a length bigger than Integer.MAX_VALUE is not realistic anyway. On a related note, I'd rename the parameter from length to count.
