mainlining shenanigans
e27c49291a
The x86 platform operations are fairly isolated, so it's easy to change them from using timespec to timespec64. It has been checked that all the users and callers are safe, and there is only one critical function that is broken beyond 2106: pvclock_read_wallclock() uses a 32-bit number of seconds since the epoch to communicate the boot time between host and guest in a virtual environment. This will work until 2106, but fixing this is outside the scope of this change, Add a comment at least.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
