Replace the use of struct timeval and do_gettimeofday() with ktime_get_real_seconds() which provides a 64-bit seconds value and is y2038 safe. gdth driver requires changes in two areas: 1) gdth_store_event() loads two u32 timestamp fields for ioctl GDTIOCTL_EVENT These timestamp fields are part of struct gdth_evt_str used for passing event data to userspace. At the first instance of an event we do (first_stamp=last_stamp="current time"). If that same event repeats, we do (last_stamp="current time") AND increment same_count to indicate how many times the event has repeated since first_stamp. This patch replaces the use of timeval and do_gettimeofday() with ktime_get_real_seconds() cast to u32 to extend the timestamp fields to y2106. Beyond y2106, the userspace tools (ie. RAID controller monitors) can work around the time rollover and this driver would still not need to change. Alternative: The alternative approach is to introduce a new ioctl in gdth with the u32 time fields defined as u64. This would require userspace changes now, but not in y2106. 2) gdth_show_info() calculates elapsed time using u32 first_stamp It is adding events with timestamps to a seq_file. Timestamps are calculated as the "current time" minus the first_stamp. This patch replaces the use of timeval and do_gettimeofday() with ktime_get_real_seconds() cast to u32 to calculate the timestamp. This elapsed time calculation is safe even when the time wraps (beyond y2106) due to how unsigned subtraction works. A comment has been added to the code to indicate this safety. Alternative: This piece itself doesn't warrant an alternative, but if we do introduce a new structure & ioctl with u64 timestamps, this would change accordingly.
