[PATCH 2/2] sched/nohz: fix overflow error in scheduler_tick_max_deferment()

[Kevin Hilman <khilman@linaro.org>]

The conversion of the max deferment from usecs to nsecs can easily
overflow on platforms where a long is 32-bits.  To fix, cast the usecs
value to u64 before multiplying by NSECS_PER_USEC.

This was discovered on 32-bit ARM platform when extending the max
deferment value.
