[PATCH 0/2] afs: Migrate to 64-bit timekeeping

This patchset is an attempt to port afs's timekeeping
variables from time_t type to time64_t. AFS uses
get_seconds to store real (wall clock) time in seconds.
The time returned by get_seconds() will overflow on 32-bit systems
in year 2106 and beyond.
This patchset replaces the usage with ktime_get_real_seconds.
Fields that propagate to the inode (mtime_client, mtime_server,
creation) remain untouched, as the inode timestamps are only 32bit.
