Subject: [PATCH v3 5/8] pci: cx88-input: use 64-bit arithmetic instead of
 32-bit

Add suffix LL to constant 1000000 in order to give the compiler
complete information about the proper arithmetic to use. Notice
that this constant is used in a context that expects an expression
of type ktime_t (64 bits, signed).

The expression ir->polling * 1000000 is currently being evaluated
using 32-bit arithmetic.

Changes in v2:
 - Update subject and changelog to better reflect the proposed code changes.
 - Add suffix LL to constant instead of casting a variable.

Changes in v3:
 - Mention the specific Coverity reports in the commit message.
