There are two expressions in kernel/sched.c that are always false since they test for <0 but the result of the expression is unsigned so they will never be less than zero. This patch implement the logic that I believe is intended without the signedness issue and without the nasty casts.

This is not *quite* the intended behaviour. It is OK for prev->timestamp to be '0 - a bit' and now to be '0 + a bit' in the case of wrapping.

Although considering they're 64-bit values, I'm not sure how much we care.
