[PATCH] Add 64bit jiffies compares (for use with get_jiffies_64)
The current time_before/time_after macros will fail typechecks when passed u64 values (as returned by get_jiffies_64()). On 64bit systems, this will just result in a warning about mismatching types without explicit casts, but since unsigned long and u64 (unsigned long long) are of same size, it will still work. On 32bit systems, a long is 32bits, so the value from get_jiffies_64() will be truncated by the cast and thus lose all the precision gained by 64bit jiffies.
