[PATCH v3 7/7] timex: change syscalls to use struct __kernel_timex
From: Deepa Dinamani
Date: Sat Jul 07 2018 - 01:44:09 EST
struct timex is not y2038 safe.
Switch all the syscall apis to use y2038 safe __kernel_timex.
Note that sys_adjtimex() does not have a y2038 safe solution.
The api is meant to be deprecated on 32 bit machines after y2038.
