Ah, I see, fixed that.

Sorry, I don't know if it should, just copied it from getnstimofday().
BTW what is the bad value for timespec or you mean returning int
instead of void? I think this function should be handled the same way as
getnstimeofday() and no one currently expects that the latter can return
some bad value.
