[PATCH] time: Avoid signed overflow in timekeeping_delta_to_ns()

From: Chris Metcalf
Date: Mon Nov 14 2016 - 14:43:06 EST


This bugfix was originally made in commit 35a4933a8959 ("time:
Avoid signed overflow in timekeeping_get_ns()"). When the code was
refactored in commit 6bd58f09e1d8 ("time: Add cycles to nanoseconds
translation") the signed overflow fix was lost. Re-introduce it.

I happened to be looking for an unrelated fix, found this code,
realized the tip code didn't match the fixed code, and
backtracked to where it had gone away.
