Subject: ntp: avoid time_offset overflows
From: john stultz <johnstul@xxxxxxxxxx>
I've been seeing some odd NTP behavior recently on a few boxes and
finally narrowed it down to time_offset overflowing when converted to
SHIFT_UPDATE units (which was a side effect from my HZfreeNTP patch).
This patch converts time_offset from a long to a s64 which resolves the
issue.
