The series aims at isolating data conversions of time_t based structures: struct timespec and struct itimerspec at user space boundaries. This helps to later change the underlying types to handle y2038 changes to these.
The series is an update to Arnd Bergmann's previous series: http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-05/msg00070.html
Changes since v1: * Rebased and removed common code paths on the tip linux-next. Changes since v2: * Removed accidental inclusion of wrong version of patch 3/7.
