x86/hpet: Use the FSEC_PER_SEC constant for femto-second periods
The current computation, introduced with f12a15be63, of FSEC_PER_SEC using
the multiplication of (FSEC_PER_NSEC * NSEC_PER_SEC) is performed only
with 32bit integers on small machines, resulting in an overflow and a
*very* short intervals being programmed.  An interrupt storm follows.
Note that we also have to specify FSEC_PER_SEC as being long long to
overcome the same limitations.
