I just had a quick look at driver/input/evdev.c, since evdev devices
did a similar change recently to allow evdev timestamp from the
monotonic clock. They're using a different time API:
time_mono = ktime_get();
time_real = ktime_sub(time_mono, ktime_get_monotonic_offset());
and
event->time = ktime_to_timeval(client->clkid == CLOCK_MONOTONIC ?
mono : real);
I'm not really up-to-date on kernel time APIs, but I wonder if that
may be better? At least, I suspect we wouldn't need changes outside
drm if we use this API.
