[PATCH] sysctl: Fix large millisecond-to-jiffies conversions

[Avi Weiss <thnkslprpt@gmail.com>]

sysctl_msecs_to_jiffies() compares the input against
jiffies_to_msecs(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET), which returns an unsigned int.
When the converted limit exceeds UINT_MAX, it is truncated, causing
valid timeouts to be incorrectly saturated to MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET.
For example, on 32-bit systems with HZ=100, writing 2147483647 ms
stores 1073741822 jiffies instead of 214748365.

For unsigned long sysctls, values between INT_MAX and UINT_MAX
are passed to msecs_to_jiffies(), which interprets them as negative
timeouts. On 64-bit systems with HZ=1000, writing 2147483648 ms
stores MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET instead of 2147483648 jiffies.

Keep the existing conversion for values up to INT_MAX, and use
overflow-safe, full-width arithmetic for larger values. Clamp
the result to MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET.
