[PATCH 1/2] y2038: make CONFIG_64BIT_TIME unconditional

[Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>]

As Stepan Golosunov points out, we made a small mistake in the
get_timespec64() function in the kernel. It was originally added under
the assumption that CONFIG_64BIT_TIME would get enabled on all 32-bit
and 64-bit architectures, but when I did the conversion, I only turned
it on for 32-bit ones.

The effect is that the get_timespec64() function never clears the upper
half of the tv_nsec field for 32-bit tasks in compat mode. Clearing this
is required for POSIX compliant behavior of functions that pass a
'timespec' structure with a 64-bit tv_sec and a 32-bit tv_nsec, plus
uninitialized padding.

The easiest fix for linux-5.1 is to just make the Kconfig symbol
unconditional, as it was originally intended. As a follow-up,
we should remove any #ifdef CONFIG_64BIT_TIME completely.
