Subject: jiffies: cast to unsigned long for secs_to_jiffies() conversion
Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2025 19:26:58 +0000

While converting users of msecs_to_jiffies(), lkp reported that some range
checks would always be true because of the mismatch between the implied
int value of secs_to_jiffies() vs the unsigned long return value of the
msecs_to_jiffies() calls it was replacing.  Fix this by casting
secs_to_jiffies() values as unsigned long.
