[PATCH v2] net/sched: act_gate: Limit the max value for cycletime

If the user passes a cycletime value of 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFULL,
an overflow occurs during the assignment of cycle in gate_timer_func():

cycle = p->tcfg_cycletime; // overflow, cycle = -1

Since the local variable cycle is declared as ktime_t (i.e., s64),
the assignment overflows.

This leads to an incorrect calculation of the close_time value.
Ultimately, the new hrtimer expiry time becomes less than now, causing
__hrtimer_run_queues() to execute the "timer callback" for an excessively
long period, which triggers a soft lockup. [1]

Another factor is that the passed interval value is 1; while this accelerates
the problematic progression of close_time, it is not the decisive factor in
the issue described in [1].

When initializing cycletime, ensuring its value does not exceed INT_MAX
guarantees that the hrtimer can correctly calculate a valid expiry time.
