The exynos DRM driver uses real-time 'struct timeval' values for exporting its timestamps to user space. This has multiple problems: 1. signed seconds overflow in y2038 2. the 'struct timeval' definition is deprecated in the kernel 3. time may jump or go backwards after a 'settimeofday()' syscall 4. other DRM timestamps are in CLOCK_MONOTONIC domain, so they can't be compared 5. exporting microseconds requires a division by 1000, which may be slow on some architectures. The code existed in two places before, but the IPP portion was removed in 8ded59413ccc ("drm/exynos: ipp: Remove Exynos DRM IPP subsystem"), so we no longer need to worry about it. Ideally timestamps should just use 64-bit nanoseconds instead, but of course we can't change that now. Instead, this tries to address the first four points above by using monotonic 'timespec' values. According to Tobias Jakobi, user space doesn't care about the timestamp at the moment, so we can change the format. Even if there is something looking at them, it will work just fine with monotonic times as long as the application only looks at the relative values between two events.
