Commit cb47755725da("time: Prevent undefined behaviour in timespec64_to_ns()")
introduced a regression in the ina2xx driver.
In ina2xx_capture_thread() a timespec64 structure is used to calculate
the delta time until the next sample time. This delta can be negative if
the next sample time was in the past which is common in ina2xx driver. 
In the negative case timespec64_to_ns() now clamps the negative time 
to KTIME_MAX. This essentially puts ina2xx thread to sleep forever.
Proposed patch is to:
a) change from timespec64_XXX() to standard raw ktime_XXX() APIs to remove 
non-standard timespec64 calls.
b) split the functionality in the loop into two parts:
 - do while loop only does the test to see if the next sample time is in the
future or in the past. If in the past and the next sample time will be 
incremented until it is in the future. This test is done with a simple 
signed comparison as we are only interested in the sign being positive or 
negative.
 - after do while loop we know that next is later than now and so delay is
positive and ksub_sub() can be used to get the delay which is positive.
