timespec is deprecated because of the y2038 overflow, so let's convert this one to ktime_get_ts64(). The code is already safe even on 32-bit architectures, since it uses monotonic times. On 64-bit architectures, nothing changes, while on 32-bit architectures this avoids one type conversion.

cur_ms = (u64)(u32)cur_ts.tv_sec * MSEC_PER_SEC +I am not sure why is tv_sec converted to u32.
It was a micro-optimization that I did to turn a 's64 * constant -> s64' operation into a cheaper 's32 * constant -> s64' operation. If you prefer, I can sent it again with a comment, or drop the two casts.
