[PATCH v2] drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN: change type of hfc_jiffies to unsigned long

[Hannes Eder]

Jiffies are unsigned long, make sure we fit in jiffies store variable
on archs with bits per long > 32.

Patch suggested by Jiri Slaby.

Uhm, it was not clear in this context, as uint is used all over the place.

Thank you Jiri.
