Hi everyone,
This is a conversion of all subsystem-wide v4l2 code to avoid the
use of types based on time_t. The first five patches should all
be harmless and obvious, so they can get applied for 4.3 after
normal review.
The last two patches are marked RFC for now because their possible
impact on the user space ABI and to decide if this is the best
approach or whether we should instead introduce extra code in
the kernel to handle modified user space.
There are a few device drivers beyond this series that rely on
time_t/timeval/timespec internally, but they are all easy to fix
and can be taken care of later.

[media] dvb: use ktime_t for internal timeout
[media] dvb: remove unused systime() function
[media] dvb: don't use 'time_t' in event ioctl
[media] exynos4-is: use monotonic timestamps as advertized
[media] use v4l2_get_timestamp where possible
[RFC] [media]: v4l2: introduce v4l2_timeval
[RFC] [media] introduce v4l2_timespec type for timestamps

2.1.0.rc2
This patch replaces timeval with timespec64 as 32 bit 'struct timeval'
will not give current time beyond 2038.
The patch changes the code to use ktime_get_real_ts64() which returns
a 'struct timespec64' instead of do_gettimeofday() which returns a
'struct timeval'
This patch also alters the format strings in sprintf() for now.tv_sec
and now.tv_nsec to incorporate 'long long' on 32 bit architectures and
leading zeroes respectively.

Changes in v2:
-change format string of now.tv_sec to '%llu'
-change format string of now.tv_nsec to '%.08lu'
Changes in v3:
-Replace tv_usec with tv_nsec, error made in v2
-Build tested

Thanks for choosing Interfax!
Based on the discussion, here is how I propose to proceed:
1. Series for timestamp range check and clamping
2. Bug fixing patches like change all CURRENT_TIME use cases to
current_fs_time()
3. Patches for vfs to use timespec64 internally (maybe a series, if
required)
4. Patches that change all fs that use vfs APIs using timestamp arguments
(not a series)
5. Change individual fs to use timespec64 (not a series)
6. Change back whatever time conversion APIs left in vfs or individual fs
(maybe a series, if required)
So, I don't see a need for submitting another series as all the changes now
are handled on a case by case basis and no longer have a generic theme.
If everyone's in sync then I can proceed with the above plan.
