While the regular inode timestamps all use timespec64 now, the
i_otime field is btrfs specific and still needs to be converted
to correctly represent times beyond 2038.

This patch addresses the remaining type conversions, so I'm going to
merge it, thanks.

Actually for the sake of consistency we might want to merge this series
altogether. As it stands we now use ktime_get_seconds and
ktime_get_real_seconds (from Allen's patch). I haven't dug to see what's
the difference (if any) between the two .

I just checked again and see that Allen's patch addresses the first two
of my three patches, but he picked a different approach for
transaction_kthread(): My patch moved to CLOCK_MONOTONIC,
while his version only changed the to time64_t but kept the
CLOCK_REALTIME behavior. It's a small difference, but I think
my version is slightly better. My patch 2/3 is identical to his version.

If you like, I can also rebase my patch 1/3 on top of his patch and
change it to CLOCK_MONOTONIC.

I agree, in the transaction_kthread we are only interested in knowing
whether a fixed time windows (commit_internval) has passed. So monotonic
makes more sense here.

Please do.
