From 67dfae0cd72fec5cd158b6e5fb1647b7dbe0834c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org> Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2015 18:05:20 -0700 Subject: clocksource: Fix abs() usage w/ 64bit values This patch fixes one cases where abs() was being used with 64-bit nanosecond values, where the result may be capped at 32-bits. This potentially could cause watchdog false negatives on 32-bit systems, so this patch addresses the issue by using abs64().
