The VFS inode timestamps are not y2038 safe as they use struct timespec. These will be changed to use struct timespec64 instead and that is y2038 safe. But, since the above data type conversion will break the end file systems, use vfs_time aliases here to access inode times. This is set as a vfs callback function for inode operations. This accepts inode timestamp as an argument. And, needs to switch to 64 bit time representation along with vfs.
