3.5.7u1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter at oracle.com>
commit 5b3900cd409466c0070b234d941650685ad0c791 upstream.
We fixed a bunch of integer overflows in timekeeping code during the 3.6
cycle. I did an audit based on that and found this potential overflow.
