Arnd and I talked about this today morning.
We agreed that we could introduce a new time_types.h along the lines
of posix_types.h. We will move all the time definitions that we plan
to keep in the kernel uapi headers to this header. This header will
also not have any overlap with the sys/time.h and can be included
along with it from userspace.
I will post this patch shortly.
This should fix Ran's issue.
