[LTP] [PATCH] common_timers: define NSEC_PER_SEC as long long to avoid overflow on 32-bit

When multiplying 30 with NSEC_PER_SEC, the result would overflow on 32-bit
platforms, unless there was promotion to long long, which is what
tst_ts_from_ns expects.

futex_wake04, which uses that, would end up getting EINVAL when calling futex,
because timespec_valid would fail, as tv_nsec would have an invalid value.

After this change, futex_wake04 passes on i386.
