Log:
  Provide high precision conversion from ns,us,ms -> sbintime in kevent

  In timer2sbintime(), calculate the second and fractional second portions of
  the sbintime separately. When calculating the the fractional second portion,
  use a 64bit multiply to prevent excess truncation. This avoids the ~7% error
  in the original conversion for ns, and smaller errors of the same type for us
  and ms.
