Subject: [PATCH] media: rc: Replace timeval with ktime_t in imon.c

This patch changes the 32-bit time type (timeval) to the 64-bit one
(ktime_t), since 32-bit time types will break in the year 2038.

I use ktime_t instead of all uses of timeval in imon.c

This patch also changes do_gettimeofday() to ktime_get() accordingly,
since ktime_get returns a ktime_t, but do_gettimeofday returns a
struct timeval, and the other reason is that ktime_get() uses
the monotonic clock.

This patch use a new function which is provided by another patch listed below
to get the millisecond time difference.

The patch looks great. Just a few small details that could still be
improved:

In general, when you give a mailing list link, use the 'Link' tag
under your Signed-off-by line, like

Link: http://lkml.iu.edu//hypermail/linux/kernel/1412.2/00625.html

It's not used much yet, but getting more popular and seems useful to me.

In this particular case, when you have patches that depend on one
another, you can make do it even better by sending all three patches
as a series with a [PATCH 0/3] cover letter.

If the media maintainers can provide an Ack for this patch, I would
suggest to queue it up in the y2038 branch together with your first
patch that it depends on.

The "= {0}" part here is redundant, since static variables are always
initialized to zero. Normally, adding the explicit initializer can
help readability, but in this case I would leave it out because it shows
implementation details of ktime_t that are better hidden from drivers.

Same thing here of course.

OK, I'll send a patch-set including these three patches

Yes, patch looks OK. After addressing the bits pointed by Arnd:

Feel free to merge via y2038 tree.
