PATCH: avoid possible integer overflow with cmp_range() in kernel/range.c

The cmp_range function (in kernel/range.c) is returning the difference between two s64 values (actually coming from u64 typed variables) in an int which can overflow (depending on the size of int). This function is used as a compare function for linux's sort function (in lib/sort.c). Linux's
