procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time for nohz

Since commit a25cac51 ("proc: Consider NO_HZ when printing idle and
iowait times") we are reporting idle/io_wait time also while a CPU is
tickless.  We rely on get_{idle,iowait}_time functions to retrieve
proper data.

These functions, however, use usecs_to_cputime to translate micro
seconds time to cputime64_t.  This is just an alias to usecs_to_jiffies
which reduces the data type from u64 to unsigned int and also checks
whether the given parameter overflows jiffies_to_usecs(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET)
and returns MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET in that case.

When we overflow depends on CONFIG_HZ but especially for CONFIG_HZ_300
it is quite low (1431649781) so we are getting MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET for
>3000s! until we overflow unsigned int.  Just for reference
CONFIG_HZ_100 has an overflow window around 20s, CONFIG_HZ_250 ~8s and
CONFIG_HZ_1000 ~2s.

This results in a bug when people saw [h]top going mad reporting 100%
CPU usage even though there was basically no CPU load.  The reason was
simply that /proc/stat stopped reporting idle/io_wait changes (and
reported MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET) and so the only change happening was for user
system time.

Let's use nsecs_to_jiffies64 instead which doesn't reduce the precision
to 32b type and it is much more appropriate for cumulative time values
(unlike usecs_to_jiffies which intended for timeout calculations).
