cbs_set_port_rate() and cbs_change() multiply link rates and slope values
by BYTES_PER_KBIT, an unsigned long constant. On 32-bit architectures,
the multiplications therefore take place in 32-bit unsigned arithmetic
before the results are assigned to s64 fields.
For port rates above approximately 34.36 Gbit/s this wraps port_rate.
The same conversion turns a negative sendslope into a large positive
value, reversing the CBS credit adjustment. This affects software CBS;
port_rate is also refreshed on NETDEV_UP and NETDEV_CHANGE notifications.
Cast the first operand of each multiplication to s64 so all intermediate
operations use signed 64-bit arithmetic and preserve the value's sign on
every architecture
Also reject a non-positive idleslope. A negative idleslope can arm the
watchdog in the past and busy-loop.
Fixes: 585d763af09c ("net/sched: Introduce Credit Based Shaper (CBS) qdisc")
Fixes: 397006ba5d918 ("net/sched: cbs: Fix integer overflow in cbs_set_port_rate()")

v2:
- Reject a non-positive idleslope to prevent scheduling the watchdog in
the past.
- Leave the pre-existing timediff_to_credits() overflow for a separate
follow-up.
