Subject: time: Prevent 32 bit overflow with set_normalized_timespec()
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~12285^2~1
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=12e09337fe238981cb0c87543306e23775d1a143;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

time: Prevent 32 bit overflow with set_normalized_timespec()

set_normalized_timespec() nsec argument is of type long. The recent
timekeeping changes of ktime_get_ts() feed

	ts->tv_nsec + tomono.tv_nsec + nsecs

to set_normalized_timespec(). On 32 bit machines that sum can be
larger than (1 << 31) and therefor result in a negative value which
screws up the result completely.

Make the nsec argument of set_normalized_timespec() s64 to fix the
problem at hand. This also prevents similar problems for future users
of set_normalized_timespec().
