poll-loop: Change poll_timer_wait() parameter from "int" to "long long".
Every so often I get concerned because OVS does most of its time arithmetic in "long long int" but poll_timer_wait() takes an "int", so there is potential for truncating a large value to a small value or a positive value to a negative value. That would cause excessive wakeups and possibly 100% CPU usage. This commit therefore changes poll_timer_wait()'s parameter type from "int" to "long long int". The file-scope 'timeout' variable remains type "int" because that is the type of poll()'s timeout argument. Factoring poll_timer_wait() into two functions is not necessary here but it comes in handy in the following patch.
