The posix timer ti_overrun handling is broken because the forwarding functions can return a huge number of overruns which does not fit in an int. As a consequence timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun can turn into random number generators. As a first step to address that let the timer_forward() callbacks return the full 64 bit value. Cast it to (int) temporarily until k_itimer::ti_overrun is converted to 64bit and the conversion to user space visible values is sanitized.
