time: Avoid potential shift overflow with large shift values
Andreas Schwab noticed that the 1 << tk->shift could overflow if the shift value was greater than 30, since 1 would be a 32bit long on 32bit architectures. This issue was introduced by 1e75fa8be (time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec)
Use 1ULL instead to ensure we don't overflow on the shift.
