[004/145] [WATCHDOG] bfin: fix max timeout calculation

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Mar 12 2010 - 19:30:59 EST


2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

----------------
From: Mike Frysinger <vapier@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3dae93ec3ee1fceec69f40ef9b97892ce62ba7a5 upstream.

Relying on overflow/wrap around isn't exact because if you wrap far
enough, you get back to "valid" values.
