[PATCH] ipt_recent fixes

[Juergen Kreileder]

Hi,

I've had some ipt_recent rules acting strangely after an uptime of
about 25 days.  The broken behavior is reproducible in the 5 minutes
before the first jiffies roll-over right after booting too.

The cause of the problem is the jiffies comparision which doesn't work
like intended if one of the last hits was more than LONG_MAX seconds
ago or if the table of last hits contains empty slots and jiffies
is > LONG_MAX.

This patch fixes the problem by using get_seconds() instead of
jiffies.  It also fixes some 64-bit issues.
