'struct timeval' will have its tv_sec value overflow on 32-bit systems
in year 2038 and beyond. This patch replaces the use of struct timeval
for computing mpi_request.TimeStamp, and instead uses ktime_t which provides
64-bit seconds value. The timestamp computed remains unaffected (milliseconds
since Unix epoch).

Can you wait a cycle on this? Martin Petersen is on a mission to wrangle the mpt2/3sas merger in this window, which will conflict with this.

James,
No issues. Making a note here though that the patches for
mpt2sas_base.c and mpt3sas_base.c are identical, I submitted the
latter before I saw your email.

We just consolidated the mpt2sas and mpt3sas drivers into one so I'm
afraid your time tweaks will have to be rebased. I encourage you repost
in a couple of weeks after the merge window dust settles.

Thanks!
