net: ipv4: Convert IP network timestamps to be y2038 safe
[ Upstream commit 822c868532cae2cc1c51f4f18ab61c194d98aaf6 ] ICMP timestamp messages and IP source route options require timestamps to be in milliseconds modulo 24 hours from midnight UT format. Add inet_current_timestamp() function to support this. The function returns the required timestamp in network byte order. Timestamp calculation is also changed to call ktime_get_real_ts64() which uses struct timespec64. struct timespec64 is y2038 safe. Previously it called getnstimeofday() which uses struct timespec. struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Signed-off-by: Deepa Dinamani <deepa.kernel@gmail.com> Cc: "David S.
