When trying to build a kernel with time_t commented out, I found that the ntp subsystem still relies on timespec for its pps handling.
This series addresses this and converts all the code to use timespec64 instead, step by step. There is one device driver that interacts with this code directly (rather than only through the ptp subsystem), so I have to convert that driver at the same time.
The patches should ideally stay together as a series, but they do span multiple subsystems, so I'm also looking for the right person to merge them.
Please review.
Thanks,
Arnd

There is only one user of the hardpps function in the kernel, so it makes sense to atomically change it over to using 64-bit timestamps for y2038 safety. In the hardpps implementation, we also need to change the pps_normtime structure, which is similar to struct timespec and also requires a 64-bit seconds portion.
This introduces two temporary variables in pps_kc_event() to do the conversion, they will be removed again in the next step, which seemed preferable to having a larger patch changing it all at the same time.

There is exactly one caller of getnstime_raw_and_real in the kernel, which is the pps_get_ts function. This changes the caller and the implementation to work on timespec64 types rather than timespec, to avoid the time_t overflow on 32-bit architectures.
For consistency with the other new functions (ktime_get_seconds, ktime_get_real_*, ...), I'm renaming the function to ktime_get_raw_and_real_ts64.
We still need to convert from the internal 64-bit type to 32 bit types in the caller, but this conversion is now pushed out from getnstime_raw_and_real to pps_get_ts. A follow-up patch changes the remaining pps code to completely avoid the conversion.

The pps_event_time uses two 'timespec' structures internally, which suffer from the y2038 problem. The uses of this structure are fairly self-contained in the pps code, so this replaces them all at once.
Unfortunately, this includes the sfc ethernet driver aside from the pps subsystem, so we change that one as well. Both touch the same data structure, and there probably is no good way to split the patch into smaller units.

The sfc driver internally uses a time format based on 32-bit (unsigned) seconds and 32-bit nanoseconds. This means it will overflow in 2106, but the value we pass into it is a signed 32-bit tv_sec that already overflows in 2038 to a negative value.
This patch changes the logic to use the lower 32 bits of the timespec64 tv_sec in efx_ptp_ns_to_s_ns, which will have the correct value beyond the overflow. While this does not change any of the register values, it lets us keep using the driver after we deprecate the use of the timespec type in the kernel.
In the efx_ptp_process_times function, the change to use timespec64 is similar, in that the tv_sec portion is ignored anyway and we only care about the nanosecond portion that remains unchanged.

This series addresses this and converts all the code to use timespec64 instead, step by step. There is one device driver that interacts with this code directly (rather than only through the ptp subsystem), so I have to convert that driver at the same time.
The patches should ideally stay together as a series, but they do span multiple subsystems, so I'm also looking for the right person to merge them.
Please review.
(Series was "lightly reviewed" ;)

I'm happy with this going via a tree other than mine, and for the networking bits:

I've queued the set for testing.
