These warnings occur because both preferred_time and pfx_pltimeexpire
are uint32_t's, so the subtraction expression is also unsigned, and
calling abs() is a no-op.
However, the intention was to look at the absolute difference between
the two unsigned quantities. Introduce a small static function to
clarify what we're doing, and call that instead.
