Thanks a lot.

Sorry for the building errors, since I can not build CONFIG_COMPAT
mode on my arm32 platform. But I will try to fix these build errors in
next version. This RFC patchset, I just want to show how to fix the
y2038 issue and to see if it is on the correct way. Sorry for the
building errors again.

Understood. Very appreciated for your comments.
