rcu: Stop overflowing signed integers
The C standard does not specify the result of an operation that
overflows a signed integer, so such operations need to be
avoided. This patch changes the type of several fields from
"long" to "unsigned long" and adjusts operations as needed.
ULONG_CMP_GE() and ULONG_CMP_LT() macros are introduced to do
the modular comparisons that are appropriate given that overflow
is an expected event.
