[PATCH v2] firewire: Replace timeval with timespec64

From: Amitoj Kaur Chawla
Date: Wed Oct 21 2015 - 18:35:13 EST


32 bit systems using 'struct timeval' will break in the year 2038, so
we replace the code appropriately. However, this driver is not broken
in 2038 since we are using only the microseconds portion of the
current time.

This patch replaces timeval with timespec64.

Changes in v2:
-Replaced timespec with timspec64
-Modified commit message
-Used ktime_get_real_ts64() instead of getnstimeofday64()
