The kernel uses 32-bit signed value(time_t) for seconds since 1970-01-01:00:00:00, so it
will overflow at 2038-01-19 03:14:08 on 32-bit systems. We call this "2038 safety" issue.

As part of addressing 2038 safety for in-kernel uses, this patch creates no functional change
in existing users, converts pvclock_read_wallclock() to use timespec64 instead of timespec.
