Subject: [PATCH] time: compat settimeofday: Validate the values of tv from user

Similar to commit 6ada1fc0e1c4
("time: settimeofday: Validate the values of tv from user"),
an unvalidated user input is multiplied by a constant, which can result
in an undefined behaviour for large values. While this is validated
later, we should avoid triggering undefined behaviour.
