[PATCH] procfs: avoid 32-bit time_t in /proc/*/stat

[PATCH] procfs: avoid 32-bit time_t in /proc/*/stat

[Arnd Bergmann]

/proc/stat shows (among lots of other things) the current boottime
(i.e. number of seconds since boot). While a 32-bit number is sufficient
for this particular case, we want to get rid of the 'struct timespec'
suffers from a 32-bit overflow in 2038.

This changes the code to use a struct timespec64, which is known to
be safe in all cases.
