Staging: lustre: lnet: Improve 'incarnation' stamp
ksock_net_t uses a __u64 quantity as an 'incarnation' timestamp. This is also
passed on in hello messages and used to detect if a reboot has occurred.
This 'incarnation' is obtained using do_gettimeofday.It is only used in equality
checks, so the absolute value does not matter.
This patch replaces do_gettimeofday with ktime_get_ns for the following reasons:
1. ktime_get_ns returns a __u64 which is safer than 'struct timeval'
which will overflow on 32-bit systems in year 2038 and beyond.
2. Reduced compute: ktime_get_ns is faster than the multiply/add
combination used in this function
