[PATCH] time: Fix sign bug in ntp mult overflow warning

[John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>]

In commit 6067dc5a8c2b ("time: Avoid possible NTP adjustment mult
overflow") a new check was added to watch for adjustments that could
cause a mult overflow.

Unfortunately the check compares a signed with unsigned value and
ignored the case where the adjustment was negative, which causes
spurious warn-ons on some systems (and seems like it would result in
problematic time adjustments there as well, due to the early
return).

Thus this patch adds a check to make sure the adjustment is positive
before we check for an overflow, and resovles the issue in my
testing.
