gh-91421: Use constant value check during runtime (GH-91422) (GH-91493)

The left-hand side expression of the if-check can be converted to a
constant by the compiler, but the addition on the right-hand side is
performed during runtime.

Move the addition from the right-hand side to the left-hand side by
turning it into a subtraction there. Since the values are known to
be large enough to not turn negative, this is a safe operation.

Prevents a very unlikely integer overflow on 32 bit systems.

Fixes GH-91421.
