[PATCH v2] sched/fair: fix mul overflow on 32-bit systems

From: Andrey Ryabinin
Date: Mon Dec 14 2015 - 07:46:56 EST


Make 'r' 64-bit type to avoid overflow in 'r * LOAD_AVG_MAX'
on 32-bit systems:
UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in kernel/sched/fair.c:2785:18
signed integer overflow:
87950 * 47742 cannot be represented in type 'int'

Fixes: 9d89c257dfb9 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking")

Changes since v1:
- Removed wrong second hunk. Anyway, if fix for util_avg is needed,
it deserves a separte patch.
