'struct frame' uses two variables to store the sent timestamp - 'struct
timeval' and jiffies. jiffies is used to avoid discrepancies caused by
updates to system time. 'struct timeval' uses 32-bit representation for
seconds which will overflow in year 2038.
This patch does the following:
- Replace the use of 'struct timeval' and jiffies with struct timespec64,
which provides a 64-bit seconds timestamp and is year 2038 safe.
- timespec64 provides both long range (like jiffies) and high resolution
(like timeval). Using monotonic time (ktime_get_ts64) instead of wall-clock
time prevents any discrepancies caused by updates to system time.
The previous attempt at this patch and related discussion is here:
https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/y2038/2015-May/000245.html
As noted previously, the existing code is 2038-safe, as it only uses a
delta instead of absolute timestamps. However, this patch is part of a
larger attempt to remove _all_ instances of 32-bit timekeeping from the
kernel (time_t, struct timeval and struct timespec) since we do not know
which of the many instances of their usage are buggy.
It is worth noting that there may be a slight performance penalty, due
to timespec64 using nanoseconds instead of microseconds. The tsince_hr
function contains a 32-bit multiply just like the existing code, but now
it also has a 32-bit divide.

The series is part of y2038 changes.
This changes a few syscalls that have common functions to use
struct timespec64 instead of struct timespec.
This does not include changes to system call uapi interfaces.
Those will be in a different series.
Thanks to Arnd Bergmann for comments on the patches.

Resending for inclusion in Thomas's tree.
The series contains infrastucture patches required to convert
vfs times to use 64 bit time.
The intention is to include these as part of 4.6 so that the follow on
patches can go into 4.7.
Patch 1 is as per the agreed upon RFC approach 2b:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/12/105
And, patch 2 is as per previously agreed upon discussion in:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/7/20
The patches that will use these will be posted for the subsequent
kernel release.
The series and the plan have been discussed with Arnd Bergmann and
Thomas Gleixner.

'struct timespec' uses a 32-bit seconds which will overflow in year
2038 and beyond. This patch replaces timespec with timespec64. The
code is correct as is - the patch is merely part of a larger attempt
to remove all 32-bit timekeeping variables (timespec, timeval, time_t)
from the kernel.
