[patch] hangcheck-timer: cleanup casting in hangcheck_init()

From: Dan Carpenter
Date: Wed Oct 29 2014 - 04:43:14 EST


The 32 bit addition "(hangcheck_margin + hangcheck_tick)" could
potentially overflow. It triggers a static checker warning to have an
overflowed addition followed by a no-op cast. I have moved the cast so
that the addition can't overflow.

Also I removed the unneeded cast on the following line since both
"hangcheck_tsc_margin" and "TIMER_FREQ" are already 64 bit types.
