Subject: [PATCH] psi: fix integer overflow on unsigned int multiply on 32 bit systems

psi accepts window sizes upto WINDOW_MAX_US(10000000). In the case
where window_us is larger than 4294967, the result of an
multiplication overflows an unsigned int/long(4 bytes on 32 bit
system).

For example, this can happen when the window_us is 5000000 so 5000000
* 1000 (NSEC_PER_USEC) will result in 5000000000 which is greater than
UINT_MAX(4294967295). Due to this overflow, 705032704 is stored in
t->win.size instead of 5000000000. Now psi will be monitoring the
window size of 705 msecs instead of 5 secs as expected by user.

Fix this by type casting the first term of the mutiply to a u64.

Issue doesnot occur on 64 bit systems because NSEC_PER_USEC is of type
long which is 8 bytes on 64 bit systems.

Sorry, this fell through the cracks.

Peter would you mind taking this through -tip?

Looks reasonable to me.
