[PATCH net v2] bonding: fix u32 overflow in compute_gap()

[Hangbin Liu <hangbin.liu@linux.dev>]

From: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@kylinos.cn>

The TLB fields tx_bytes, load_history, load, and unbalanced_load are
all u32, which can overflow when sustained throughput exceeds ~3.2
Gbit/s over the 10-second rebalance interval. On modern high-speed
NICs under heavy load this is easily reached, causing the gap
calculation in compute_gap() to wrap and produce incorrect slave
selection.

Widen these fields to s64 so the load arithmetic stays correct.
This also lets compute_gap() naturally return negative values when a
slave is oversubscribed, which the existing max-gap selection already
handles.

Additionally, the NIC speed is left-shifted before being cast to s64.
For speeds >= 4 Gbit/s (slave->speed >= 4096), the u32 shift
(4096 << 20 = 0x100000000) overflows before the cast takes effect.
Cast slave->speed to s64 before shifting so the arithmetic is
performed in 64 bits throughout.

Also cast SPEED_UNKNOWN to 0; otherwise, it would be the largest speed
after the shift.

Detected by AI code review.
