Subject: include/linux/time.h: make NSEC_PER_SEC 64-bit on 32-bit architectures	

Nanoseconds are usually represented with 64-bit types (s64 and sometimes
u64).  The 32-bit definition of NSEC_PER_SEC can lead to compile-time and
runtime arithmetic overflows on 32-bit systems.

So switch NSEC_PER_SEC to a 64-bit type using "LL".
