Subject: [PATCH 03/21] time: Add y2038 safe update_persistent_clock64()

From: Xunlei Pang <pang.xunlei@...aro.org>

As part of addressing in-kernel y2038 issues, this patch adds
update_persistent_clock64() and replaces all the call sites of
update_persistent_clock() with this function. This is a __weak
implementation, which simply calls the existing y2038 unsafe
update_persistent_clock().

This allows architecture specific implementations to be converted
independently, and eventually y2038-unsafe update_persistent_clock()
can be removed after all its architecture specific implementations
have been converted to update_persistent_clock64().
