Subject[PATCH 4.12 032/106] timers: Fix overflow in get_next_timer_interrupt
Date
4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Matija Glavinic Pecotic <matija.glavinic-pecotic.ext@nokia.com>

commit 34f41c0316ed52b0b44542491d89278efdaa70e4 upstream.

For e.g. HZ=100, timer being 430 jiffies in the future, and 32 bit
unsigned int, there is an overflow on unsigned int right-hand side
of the expression which results with wrong values being returned.

Type cast the multiplier to 64bit to avoid that issue.

Fixes: 46c8f0b077a8 ("timers: Fix get_next_timer_interrupt() computation")
