netfilter: ipset: fix timeout value overflow bug
Large timeout parameters could result wrong timeout values due to an overflow at msec to jiffies conversion (reported by Andreas Herz) [ This patch was mangled by Pablo Neira Ayuso since David Laight and Eric Dumazet noticed that we were using hardcoded 1000 instead of MSEC_PER_SEC to calculate the timeout ] Signed-off-by: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@blackhole.kfki.hu> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
