Subject: [PATCH 3/4] time: Avoid potential shift-overflow with large shift values
Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2012 20:30:48 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1345595449-34965-4-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1345595449-34965-1-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org>

Andreas Schwab noted that the 1 << tk->shift could overflow
if the shift value was greater then 30, since 1 would be
a 32bit long on 32bit architectures.

This patch uses 1ULL instead to ensure we don't overflow on
the shift.

This issue was introduced by 1e75fa8be9fb61e1af46b5b3b176347a4c958ca1
