[PATCH 06/12] net/sched: netem: fix slot delay calculation overflow

[Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>]

get_slot_next() computes a random delay between min_delay and
max_delay using:

  get_random_u32() * (max_delay - min_delay) >> 32

This overflows signed 64-bit arithmetic when the delay range exceeds
approximately 2.1 seconds (2^31 nanoseconds), producing a negative
result that effectively disables slot-based pacing. This is a
realistic configuration for WAN emulation (e.g., slot 1s 5s).

Use mul_u64_u32_shr() which handles the widening multiply without
overflow.

Fixes: 0a9fe5c375b5 ("netem: slotting with non-uniform distribution")
