Impact: fix jiffies-comparison sign-wrap behavior

The behavior provided by printk_timed_ratelimit() is, in some
situations, probably not what a caller would reasonably expect:

bool printk_timed_ratelimit(unsigned long *caller_jiffies,
			unsigned int interval_msecs)
{
	if (*caller_jiffies == 0 || time_after(jiffies, *caller_jiffies)) {
		*caller_jiffies = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(interval_msecs);
		return true;
	}
	return false;
}

On a 32 bit computer, if printk_timed_ratelimit() is initially called at
time jiffies == Ja, *caller_jiffies is set to
Ja + msecs_to_jiffies(interval_msecs): let's say Ja + 42 for this
example.

If this caller then doesn't call printk_timed_ratelimit() until
jiffies == Ja + (1 << 31) + 42 (which can happen as soon as ~ 25 days
later on a 1000 HZ system), printk_timed_ratelimit() will then always
return false to this caller until jiffies loops completely (1 << 31 more
ticks).

Ths change makes it only return false if jiffies is in the small
time window starting at the previous call when true was returned and
ending interval_msecs later.  Note that if jiffies loops completely
between two calls to printk_timed_ratelimit(), it will obviously still
wrongly return false, but this is something with a low probability.

If something completely reliable is needed I guess jiffies_64 must be
used (which this change does not do).
