[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1] examples/vm_power_manager: fix overflowed return value

[David Hunt]

Coverity complains about the return of a value that may
possibly overflow because of a multiply. Limit the value
so it cannot overflow.

Coverity issue: 337677
Fixes: 4b1a631b8a ("examples/vm_power: add oob monitoring functions")
