[PATCH v2] hwmon: (xgene-hwmon) use appropriate type for the latency value
From: Ваторопин Андрей
Date: Tue Feb 04 2025 - 04:54:45 EST
From: Andrey Vatoropin <a.vatoropin@xxxxxxx>
The expression PCC_NUM_RETRIES * pcc_chan->latency is currently being
evaluated using 32-bit arithmetic.
Since a value of type 'u64' is used to store the eventual result,
and this result is later sent to the function usecs_to_jiffies with
input parameter unsigned int, the current data type is too wide to
store the value of ctx->usecs_lat.
Change the data type of "usecs_lat" to a more suitable (narrower) type.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

v1->v2: rework the patch by utilizing more appropriate data types for
the variables in question as Guenter Roeck noticed.
