ptp: improve max_adj check against unreasonable values
Scaled PPM conversion to PPB may (on 64bit systems) result in a value larger than s32 can hold (freq/scaled_ppm is a long). This means the kernel will not correctly reject unreasonably high ->freq values (e.g. > 4294967295ppb, 281474976645 scaled PPM). The conversion is equivalent to a division by ~66 (65.536), so the value of ppb is always smaller than ppm, but not small enough to assume narrowing the type from long -> s32 is okay. Note that reasonable user space (e.g. ptp4l) will not use such high values, anyway, 4289046510ppb ~= 4.3x, so the fix is somewhat pedantic. Fixes: d39a743511cd ("ptp: validate the requested frequency adjustment.") Fixes: d94ba80ebbea ("ptp: Added a brand new class driver for ptp clocks.")
