Under-parenthesized; if you insist on the cast, it should be:

#define QEMU_SCHED_MIN_PERIOD ((long long) 1000)

that said, it is possible to be more concise (with no parentheses
necessary):

#define QEMU_SCHED_MIN_PERIOD 1000LL

Furthermore, in the case of MAX_QUOTA, your code is wrong.  The C
compiler treats this as ((long long) ((int) 18446744073709551)), which
is 1271310319; here, you absolutely need the LL suffix, at which point
you no longer need the cast.
