If msecs is the amount of time you are going to delay for, it maybe
better to leave it signed.

If the delay is computed, something like (I hope you get the idea)
msecs = (start_jiffies + HZ/100) - jiffies,
then it is possible and legitimate to get a negative number, which
should mean: don't delay at all. However if msecs is unsigned,
then you will end up delaying forever.
