The following patch replaces all instances of time_t with time64_t i.e. change the type used for representing time from 32-bit to 64-bit. All 32-bit kernels to date use a signed 32-bit time_t type, which can only represent time until January 2038. Since embedded systems running 32-bit Linux are going to survive beyond that date, we have to change all current uses, in a backwards compatible way. The patch also changes the function get_seconds() that returns a 32-bit integer to ktime_get_seconds() that returns seconds as 64-bit integer. The patch changes the type of ticks from time_t to u32. We keep ticks as 32-bits as the function uses 32-bit arithmetic which would prove less expensive than 64-bit arithmetic and the function is expected to be called atleast once every 32 seconds.
