Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mesh_plink: fixup type of timeout to match usage

timeout was being passed as int but assigned from u32/u16 values and used 
as unsigned type. This is really only for better readability.

After review of the use locations of mesh_plink_timer_set() and declarations 
in sta_info.h this should not be breaking any integer promotions.

This patch applies on top of 
"[PATCH 1/2] mesh_plink: use msecs_to_jiffies for proper time conversion"

Patch was only compile tested with x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH=y

Patch is against 4.0-rc1 (localversion-next is -next-20150302)
