[PATCH 1/1] ipset: fix timeout data type size

[Nikolay Martynov]

Currently it is impossible to set timeout on some architectures
(MIPS ar71xx at least) because timeout is parsed into long long data
type but used as uint32 without proper conversion. This patch fixes
this issue. Tested on ar71xx router.

Hi.

  I've sent this patch for ipset some time ago. It fixes a bug that
surfaces itself on some platforms (notably on mips routers running
openwrt). Unfortunately I have not seen any feedback/response to this
patch. Is something wrong with the proposed fix or with patch itself?
Could you please let me know.

  Thanks!
