[PATCH] x86: fix unused efi_get_time function

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Nothing calls the efi_get_time function on x86, but it does suffer
from the 32-bit time_t overflow in 2038.

To avoid that if anyone starts calling it, this changes the function
to use timespec64 and mktime64 instead.

The obvious alternative would be to remove the function, I'll send
that patch as well, so you can pick one or the other.
