Thanks!

Applied to master with the above fixed.
Folded into the original commit on for-v4.19, with:

    [fthain: Adopt __u32 for the union in via_read_time(), consistent with
             changes to via_write_time()]
    [fthain: Use lower_32_bits() in via_write_time(), consistent with changes
             to pmu_write_time() and cuda_write_time()]
    [fthain: Have via_read_time() return a time64_t, consistent with changes
             to pmu_read_time() and cuda_read_time()]
    [fthain: Drop the pointless wraparound conditional in via_read_time()]

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
