Summary

Disallow a time or timer period value when the conversion to nanoseconds
would overflow. Otherwise it is possible to trigger a divison by zero
in realtime_expire_l(), where we compute the number of overruns by
dividing by the interval.

Fixes: 7995dae9 ("posix timers: Improve the overrun calculation")

I think we want some symbol like ONE_SEC_NS, so that reader can be freed from counting zeroes in the constant.

Add NSEC_PER_SEC, use it throughout kern_time.c.

The 'L' suffix is not needed, I believe.
