Unfortunately, this has two important bugs:
* e->event.tv_sec is defined as a '__u32' variable and is used in a public
user space API, so the code is just as broken afterwards as it was before.
Fixing this will require adding new ioctl commands.
* You have a typo above: I assume you mean NSEC_PER_USEC instead of
NSEC_PER_SEC, the current code will always assign tv_usec to zero,
because now.tv_nsec is by definition smaller than NSEC_PER_SEC.
