wait_task_inactive: "improve" the returned value for ->nvcsw == 0

wait_task_inactive() returns 1 when p->nvcsw == 0 || p->nvcsw == 1.  This
means that two subsequent calls can return the same number while the task
was scheduled in between.

Change the code to return "nvcsw | LONG_MIN" instead of "nvcsw ?: 1", now
the overlap always needs LONG_MAX schedules.
