Subject: [PATCH 17/23] y2038: time: avoid timespec usage in settimeofday()

The compat_get_timeval() and timeval_valid() interfaces
are deprecated and getting removed along with the definition
of struct timeval itself.

Change the two implementations of the settimeofday()
system call to open-code these helpers and completely
avoid references to timeval.
