BACKPORT: timer: convert timer_slack_ns from unsigned long to u64

This backports da8b44d5a9f8bf26da637b7336508ca534d6b319 from upstream.

This patchset introduces a /proc/<pid>/timerslack_ns interface which
would allow controlling processes to be able to set the timerslack value
on other processes in order to save power by avoiding wakeups (Something
Android currently does via out-of-tree patches).

The first patch tries to fix the internal timer_slack_ns usage which was
defined as a long, which limits the slack range to ~4 seconds on 32bit
systems.  It converts it to a u64, which provides the same basically
unlimited slack (500 years) on both 32bit and 64bit machines.

The second patch introduces the /proc/<pid>/timerslack_ns interface
which allows the full 64bit slack range for a task to be read or set on
both 32bit and 64bit machines.

With these two patches, on a 32bit machine, after setting the slack on
bash to 10 seconds:

$ time sleep 1

real    0m10.747s
user    0m0.001s
sys     0m0.005s

The first patch is a little ugly, since I had to chase the slack delta
arguments through a number of functions converting them to u64s.  Let me
know if it makes sense to break that up more or not.

Other than that things are fairly straightforward.

This patch (of 2):

The timer_slack_ns value in the task struct is currently a unsigned
long.  This means that on 32bit applications, the maximum slack is just
over 4 seconds.  However, on 64bit machines, its much much larger (~500
years).

This disparity could make application development a little (as well as
the default_slack) to a u64.  This means both 32bit and 64bit systems
have the same effective internal slack range.

Now the existing ABI via PR_GET_TIMERSLACK and PR_SET_TIMERSLACK specify
the interface as a unsigned long, so we preserve that limitation on
32bit systems, where SET_TIMERSLACK can only set the slack to a unsigned
long value, and GET_TIMERSLACK will return ULONG_MAX if the slack is
actually larger then what can be stored by an unsigned long.

This patch also modifies hrtimer functions which specified the slack
delta as a unsigned long.
