This file uses ktime_t, which comes from include/linux/ktime.h, which
eventually includes include/vdso/time64.h. include/vdso/time64.h is only
included in three header files and no drivers so I do not think this is
that brittle. I am happy to change that if the maintainers feel it is
worth the extra include.
