Arnd,
The bfa driver is one of the main users of do_gettimeofday(), a function that I'm trying to remove as part of the y2038 cleanup.
The timestamps are all uses in slightly different ways, so this has turned into a rather longish series for doing something that should be simple.
The last patch in the series ("scsi: bfa: use 64-bit times in bfa_aen_entry_s ABI") is one that needs to be reviewed very carefully, and it can be skipped if the maintainers prefer to leave the 32-bit ABI unchanged, the rest are hopefully fairly straightforward.
Applied to 4.16/scsi-queue, thanks!
Will drop #7 if something breaks.
