[PATCH v3 2/8] dvb-frontends: ves1820: use 64-bit arithmetic instead of 32-bit
From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Tue Feb 06 2018 - 11:47:28 EST
Add suffix ULL to constant 10 in order to give the compiler complete
information about the proper arithmetic to use. Notice that this
constant is used in a context that expects an expression of type
u64 (64 bits, unsigned).
The expression fpxin = state->config->xin * 10 is currently being
evaluated using 32-bit arithmetic.

Changes in v2:
- Update subject and changelog to better reflect the proposed code changes.
- Add suffix ULL to constant instead of casting a variable.

- Mention the specific Coverity report in the commit message.
