[PATCH] afs: use a consistent interpretation of time values

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Wed Jun 20 2018 - 05:42:27 EST


afs uses 32-bit timestamps everywhere, but mixes signed and unsigned
usage, which is a bit inconsistent. In particular on 32-bit machines,
it currently uses unsigned timestamps (ranging from 1970 to 2106) for
locally modified files, but signed timestamps (rand 1902 to 2038) when
reading from a remote end. On 64-bit machines, we always interpret
timestamps as unsigned here.

This replaces the deprecated time_t and get_seconds() interfaces with the
modern time64_t and current_time() to locally store 64-bit timestamps,
taking care to use unsigned interpretation of the raw values everywhere,
which avoids the y2038 overflow and is consistent with the previous
usage on 64-bit machines.
