[PATCH] sys_poll: Fix negative timeout values for x86 userland on x86_64 kernels

[Thomas Meyer <thomas@m3y3r.de>]

size of 'long' differs on x86 and x86_64. the ia32 emulation calls
directly into the sys_poll() function. when the timeout is set to a negative
value the test for sign will fail in sys_poll as the 64bit register is tested.
the timeout timer will be set to very high value, because of the sign bit.
this is an error as the timer shouldn't get set at all for negative timeout values.
