Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 03/11] time: Add rtc_tm_to_time64() safe version(using time64_t)

As part of addressing 2038 saftey for in-kernel uses, this patch
adds safe rtc_tm_to_time64() using time64_t. After this patch,
rtc_tm_to_time() should be replaced by rtc_tm_to_time64() one by
one. Eventually, rtc_tm_to_time() will be removed from the kernel
when it has no users.
