hrtimer: check relative timeouts for overflow
Various user space callers ask for relative timeouts. While we fixed
that overflow issue in hrtimer_start(), the sites which convert
relative user space values to absolute timeouts themself were uncovered.
Instead of putting overflow checks into each place add a function
which does the sanity checking and convert all affected callers to use
it.
Thanks to Frans Pop, who reported the problem and tested the fixes.
