Subject: [RFC 14/32] ext4: convert to struct inode_time

ext4fs uses unsigned 34-bit seconds for inode timestamps, which will work
for the next 500 years, but the VFS uses struct timespec for timestamps,
which is only good until 2038 on 32-bit CPUs.

This gets us one small step closer to lifting the VFS limit by using
struct inode_time in ext4.
