sched/debug: Fix fair_server_period_max value

Browse Source 
This code has an integer overflow or sign extension bug which was caught
by gcc-13:

  kernel/sched/debug.c:341:57: error: integer overflow in expression of
  type 'long int' results in '-100663296' [-Werror=overflow]
    341 | static unsigned long fair_server_period_max = (1 << 22) * NSEC_PER_USEC; /* ~4 seconds */

The result is that "fair_server_period_max" is set to 0xfffffffffa000000
(585 years) instead of instead of 0xfa000000 (4 seconds) that was
intended.

Fix this by changing the type to shift from (1 << 22) to (1UL << 22).
