[PATCH] ext2: use ktime_get_real_seconds for timestamps

[PATCH] ext2: use ktime_get_real_seconds for timestamps

[Arnd Bergmann]

get_seconds() is deprecated because of the y2038 overflow, so users
should migrate to 64-bit timestamps using ktime_get_real_seconds().
In ext2, the timestamps in the superblock and in the inode are all
limited to 32-bit, and this won't get fixed, so let's just stop
using the deprecated interface and keep truncating.

All users of ext2 should migrate to ext4 before 2038 to prevent this
from causing problems.

Thanks. The patch looks good modulo one line-wrap in fs/ext2/super.c but
I'll take care of that when taking the patch to my tree.
