[PATCH] sys_nanosleep() fix

The current nanosleep implementation has a signedness problem which can cause
it to sleep for 0x7ffffffe jiffies if a clock interrupt happens at the wrong
time.

The patch fixes that up, and also fixes an wrapping-unsafe 64-bit time
comparison.  Also uninline tstojiffie(), which has three call sites.
