Jiffies wraps around therefore the correct way to compare is to use cast to signed value. Note: cubic is not using full jiffies value on 64 bit arch because using full unsigned long makes struct bictcp grow too large for the available ca_priv area. Includes correction from Sangtae Ha to improve ack train detection.
