[Web10g-user] SndLimTime counters are too small

Hey guys,

I'm working on a Web10G version of ndt.

And I've noticed an issue with the latest kernel patch web10G-0.4-3.5-patch

The counters for SndLimTimeRwin & SndLimTimeCwn & SndLimTimeSnd are all
32bit unsigned integers however the are storing time in nano seconds, this
means they overrun in ~4 seconds

I'm guessing they should be 64bit integers or use a lower resolution like
web100 which uses microseconds (despite documentation saying it's
milliseconds).

Cheers,
Richard
