uvc_video_get_ts() returns a 'struct timespec', but all its users really want a nanoseconds variable anyway.
Changing the deprecated ktime_get_ts/ktime_get_real_ts to ktime_get and ktime_get_real simplifies the code noticeably, while keeping the resulting numbers unchanged.

As you've done lots of work moving code away from timespec I figured out I would ask, what is the preferred way to print a ktime in secs.nsecs format ? Should I use ktime_to_timespec and print ts.tv_sec and ts.tv_nsec, or is there a better way ?
We had patches under discussion to add a special printk format string that would pretty-print a date, but that never got merged. Usually there is a tradeoff between runtime to convert the nanoseconds into a different format and how useful you want it to be. ktime_to_timespec() can be a bit slow on some architectures, since it has to do a 64-bit division, but then again the sprintf logic also needs to do that. If the output isn't on a time-critical path, you can use time64_to_tm and print it in years/months/days/hours/ minutes/seconds, but depending on where it gets printed, that may not be easier to interpret than the seconds/nanoseconds or pure nanoseconds.
