The value of an arithmetic expression "n * id.data" is subject
to possible overflow due to a failure to cast operands to a larger data
type before performing arithmetic. Added cast of first operand to u64
for avoiding overflow.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

How about moving the code around a bit, change n to a u64 and drop the
cast? Does this look correct?

		int interval = HZ / rc / 2;
		u64 n = rc * 2;
		u64 count = n * id.data;

		i = 0;

I just don't like casts, they suggest the underlying types are wrong,
so should fix that, not add a cast.

This particular one is absolutely fine. When you want to multiply
u32 by u32, you always need a cast, otherwise the result will be
truncated. mul_u32_u32() does it the very same way[0].

I'm leaning towards dropping the fixes tag, and applying to -next.
Drivers returning high enough rc to cause an overflow seems theoretical, 
and is pretty harmless. Please LMK if I'm missing something.

Why not just use mul_u32_u32 then?

Ok, I'll replace cast to macro in patch V2
