As part of addressing "y2038 problem" for in-kernel uses, this
patch adds timekeeping_inject_sleeptime64() using timespec64.

After this patch, timekeeping_inject_sleeptime() is deprecated
and all its call sites will be fixed using the new interface,
after that it can be removed.

NOTE: timekeeping_inject_sleeptime() is safe actually, but we
want to eliminate timespec eventually, so comes this patch.

While it's safe, the change gets rid of the timespec conversion, so
it makes sense on its own.
