This will fail if vm->pixelclock >= ((1 << 32) / 1000). The easiest
solution is probably to use 64-bit computation.

You have displays with a pixelclock > 4GHz?

vm->pixelclock is expressed in Hz. vm->pixelclock * 1000 will thus overflow if 
the clock frequency is >= ~4.3 MHz. I have displays with a clock frequency 
higher than that :-)
