hangcheck-timer: fix x86_32 bugs ...
drivers/char/hangcheck-timer.c is doubly broken. When the overflown value
of TIMER_FREQ is abnormally low, it spams the syslog with KERN_CRIT
messages "Hangcheck: hangcheck value past margin!" But whether it happens
or not depends on HZ and lpj in a complex way. People have hit it
occasionally as far as google search can tell.
First, the following line overflows unsigned long:
# define TIMER_FREQ (HZ*loops_per_jiffy)
Second, and more importantly, loops_per_jiffy has little to do with the
con= version from the the time scale of get_cycles() (aka rdtsc) to the
time scale of jiffies.
The attached patch resolves both of the problems.
