The PTP Hardware Clock settime function in the e1000e driver computes nanoseconds from a struct timespec. The code converts the seconds field .tv_sec by multiplying it with NSEC_PER_SEC. However, both operands are of type long, resulting in an unintended overflow. The patch fixes the issue by using the helper function from time.h.
