Applied to for-linus-4.2, thanks.
"This patch" is a bit redundant in a commit message so I tweaked it to read:
struct timeval uses a 32-bit field for representing seconds, which
will overflow in the year 2038 and beyond. Replace struct timeval
with 64-bit ktime_t which is 2038 safe. This is part of a larger
effort to remove instances of 32-bit timekeeping variables
(timeval, time_t and timespec) from the kernel.
