Add suffix ULL to constant 9 in order to give the compiler complete

unsigned long long (64 bits, unsigned).

The expression tfr->len * 9 * 1000000 is currently being evaluated
using 32-bit arithmetic.

The effect looks like it would be that we would have chosen polling mode
instead of waiting for interrupts for some transfers >477 seconds.
Seems like a good fix for an unlikely bug.
