[NET] linkwatch: Handle jiffies wrap-around
The test used in the linkwatch does not handle wrap-arounds correctly.
Since the intention of the code is to eliminate bursts of messages we
can afford to delay things up to a second. Using that fact we can
easily handle wrap-arounds by making sure that we don't delay things
by more than one second.
This is based on diagnosis and a patch by Stefan Rompf.
