Subject: [PATCH v2] prism54: isl_38xx: Replace 'struct timeval'

'struct timeval' uses a 32-bit seconds field which will overflow in
year 2038 and beyond. This patch is part of a larger effort to remove
all instances of 'struct timeval' from the kernel and replace them
with 64-bit timekeeping variables.
The correctness of the code isn't affected by this patch - the seconds
value being printed would earlier be wrong due to overflow in timeval,
and now it gets truncated to 32-bit due to the 'long' cast used on
tv.sec field to prevent compiler warnings. Truly fixing this would
require changing the debug print to print more than 8 digits and
use a different specifier from %li.
The patch was build-tested / debugged by removing the
"if VERBOSE > SHOW_ERROR_MESSAGES" guards.

Changes in v2:
- Changed printf specifier as suggested by Arnd Bergmann to
avoid truncation.
