4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 6fec64e1c92d5c715c6d0f50786daa7708266bde ]
The posix timer ti_overrun handling is broken because the forwarding functions can return a huge number of overruns which does not fit in an int. As a consequence timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun can turn into random number generators.
As a first step to address that let the timer_forward() callbacks return the full 64 bit value.
Cast it to (int) temporarily until k_itimer::ti_overrun is converted to 64bit and the conversion to user space visible values is sanitized.
