mainlining shenanigans
67680d3c04
The drm vblank handling uses 'timeval' to store timestamps in either
monotonic or wall-clock time base. In either case, it reads the current
time as a ktime_t in get_drm_timestamp() and converts it from there.
This is a bit suspicious, as users of 'timeval' often suffer from
the time_t overflow in y2038. I have gone through this code and
found that it is unlikely to cause problems here:
- The user space ABI does not use time_t or timeval, but uses
'u32' and 'long' as the types. This means at least that rebuilding
user programs against a new libc with 64-bit time_t does not
change the ABI.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
