[PATCH v2 1/5] time: Introduce struct itimerspec64

From: Baolin Wang
Date: Wed Jul 29 2015 - 07:59:38 EST


The struct itimerspec is not year 2038 safe on 32bit systems due to
the limitation of the struct timespec members. Introduce itimerspec64
which uses struct timespec64 instead and provide conversion functions.
