cputime: Prevent 32bit overflow in time[val|spec]_to_cputime()

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1553179
commit 0f26922fe5dc5724b1adbbd54b21bad03590b4f3 upstream.

The datatype __kernel_time_t is u32 on 32bit platform, so its subject to
overflows in the timeval/timespec to cputime conversion.

Currently the following functions are affected:
1. setitimer()
2. timer_create/timer_settime()
3. sys_clock_nanosleep

This can happen on MIPS32 and ARM32 with "Full dynticks CPU time accounting"
enabled, which is required for CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL.

Enforce u64 conversion to prevent the overflow.

Fixes: 31c1fc818715 ("ARM: Kconfig: allow full nohz CPU accounting")
