clocksource: Make watchdog and suspend-timing multiplication overflow safe

Kernel timekeeping is designed to keep the change in cycles (since the last
timer interrupt) below max_cycles, which prevents multiplication overflow
when converting cycles to nanoseconds. However, if timer interrupts stop,
the clocksource_cyc2ns() calculation will eventually overflow.

Add protection against that. Simplify by folding together
clocksource_delta() and clocksource_cyc2ns() into cycles_to_nsec_safe().
Check against max_cycles, falling back to a slower higher precision
calculation.
