total_hw_sleep is u64. At microsecond granularity it will never realistically
overflow and isn't worth the check IMO. The overflow concern comes from the u32
hardware counter, but I don't think there's a good way to detect it.

You could just report the maximum hardware counter time as max_hw_sleep so users
know the value isn't reliable if suspended for longer than that.
