cover afs: Migrate to 64-bit timekeeping

This patchset is an attempt to port afs's timekeeping variables from time_t type to time64_t. AFS uses get_seconds to store real (wall clock) time in seconds. The time returned by get_seconds() will overflow on 32-bit systems in year 2106 and beyond.
This patchset replaces the usage with ktime_get_real_seconds. Fields that propagate to the inode (mtime_client, mtime_server, creation) remain untouched, as the inode timestamps are only 32bit.

I've applied these to my branch.

I've applied these to my branch.

Having said that, there's then a problem with m68k found by Fengguang's magic autocompiler.
