If the host decrements the counter register that results in a negative
delta. This is then passed to muldiv64 which only handles unsigned
numbers resulting in bogus results.
This fix ensures the delta being operated on is positive.
Test case: kexec a kernel using aspeed_timer and it will freeze on the
second bootup when the kernel initializes the timer. With this patch
that no longer happens and the timer appears to run OK.
