util: Some corrections for timespec_diff_us

The comment for timespec_diff_us() claims it will wrap after 2^64µs.  This
is incorrect for two reasons:
  * It returns a long long, which is probably 64-bits, but might not be
  * It returns a signed value, so even if it is 64 bits it will wrap after
    2^63µs

Correct the comment and use an explicitly 64-bit type to avoid that
imprecision.
