Add a check and return -EINVAL to prevent that from happening.

Saeed, I think this goes through your git tree and you will send a pull
request to the networking?

 From static analysis.  Not tested.

This if clause was set to reject perout time start sec bigger than U32_MAX, as rt mode specifically doesn't support it.

A user negative values protection should be generic for all netdev drivers, inside the caller ioctl func, and not part of any driver code.
