Impact: fix time output bug in 32bits system

ns2usecs() returns 'long', it's incorrect.

(In i386)
# cat trace
...
          <idle>-0     [000]   521.442100: _spin_lock <-tick_do_update_jiffies64
          <idle>-0     [000]   521.442101: do_timer <-tick_do_update_jiffies64
          <idle>-0     [000]   521.442102: update_wall_time <-do_timer
          <idle>-0     [000]   521.442102: update_xtime_cache <-update_wall_time
....
(It always print the time less than 2200 seconds besides ...)
Because 'long' is 32bits in i386. ( (1<<31) useconds is about 2200 seconds)

# cat trace
...
          <idle>-0     [001] 4154502640.134759: rcu_bh_qsctr_inc <-__do_softirq
          <idle>-0     [001] 4154502640.134760: _local_bh_enable <-__do_softirq
          <idle>-0     [001] 4154502640.134761: idle_cpu <-irq_exit
...
(very large value)
Because 'long' is a signed type and is 32bits in i386.
