[PATCH v4 1/4] epoll: convert internal api to timespec64

From: Willem de Bruijn
Date: Sat Nov 21 2020 - 09:44:19 EST


From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>

Make epoll more consistent with select/poll: pass along the timeout as
timespec64 pointer.

In anticipation of additional changes affecting all three polling
mechanisms:

- add epoll_pwait2 syscall with timespec semantics,
and share poll_select_set_timeout implementation.
- compute slack before conversion to absolute time,
to save one ktime_get_ts64 call.
