trxcon/scheduler: be safe against a theoretical integer overflow
As was noted by Pau Espin Pedrol, there is a theoretical chance that lchan->tdma.num_proc would overflow, so as a consequence, subst_frame_loss() will be unable to compensate one (potentionally lost) Downlink burst. On practice, given the size of unsigned long and duration of a single TDMA frame, it would only happen once in roughly ~6 years. FRAME_DURATION = 4615 * 10e-6 ULONG_MAX = 2 ** 32 - 1 FRAME_DURATION * ULONG_MAX -> ~198212740 seconds -> ~55059 hours -> ~2294 days -> ~6 years. Chances are that trxcon would crash much earlier, or even GSM would be completely forgotten after such a long time run, but let's work this around and simply start counting from 1 if that overflow eventually happens.
