It can lead to implicit type size reduction, so compiler can 
report warning what breaks compilation.

Yes, long type for clockid_res_ns is what it was before 
I had started to prepare the patch :)

but then I thought a little bit more and came to conclusion that 
for this multiplication with addition would probably better 
have larger type than long.

and now I think that keeping things simple is the best approach. :)

Please see v5. Thanks!

Have a good day,
