[PATCH v4] workaround regression in ina2xx introduced by cb47755725da("time: Prevent undefined behaviour in timespec64_to_ns()")
From: Iain Hunter

That change adds an error check to avoid saturation during multiplication
to calculate nano seconds in timespec64_to_ns().
In ina2xx_capture_thread() a timespec64 structure is used to calculate
the delta time until the next sample time. This delta can be negative if
the next sample time was in the past. In the -1 case timespec64_to_ns()
now clamps the -1 second value to KTIME_MAX. This essentially puts ina2xx
thread to sleep forever.
Proposed patch is to:
1 change from timespec64_XXX() to standard raw ktime_XXX() APIs to remove
non-standard timespec64 calls.
2 split the functionality in the loop into two parts:
- do while loop only does the test to see if the next sample time is in the
future or in the past and so will be skipped and the sample time
incremented until it is in the future. This test is done with a simple
signed comparison as we are only interested in the sign being positive or
negative.
- after do while loop we know that next is later than now and so delay is
positive and ksub_sub() can be used to get the delay which is positive.
