This is a series of cleanups for the y2038 work, mostly intended
for namespace cleaning: the kernel defines the traditional
time_t, timeval and timespec types that often lead to y2038-unsafe
code. Even though the unsafe usage is mostly gone from the kernel,
having the types and associated functions around means that we
can still grow new users, and that we may be missing conversions
to safe types that actually matter.

As there is no rush on any of these patches, I would either
queue them up in linux-next through my y2038 branch, or
Thomas could add them to the tip tree if he wants.

As mentioned in another series, this is part of a larger
effort to fix all the remaining bits and pieces that are
not completed yet from the y2038 conversion, and the full
set can be found at:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground.git/log/?h=y2038-endgame

Maintainers, please review and provide Acks.

Let me know if you have any opinion on whether we should do
the include last two patches of this series or not.

Seems reasonable.
