From: Ido Schimmel <ido...@mellanox.com>
Timestamps are currently communicated to user space as 'struct
timespec', which is not considered y2038 safe since it uses a 32-bit
signed value for seconds.
Fix this while the API is still not part of any official kernel release
by using 64-bit nanoseconds timestamps instead.
Fixes: ca30707dee2b ("drop_monitor: Add packet alert mode")
Fixes: 5e58109b1ea4 ("drop_monitor: Add support for packet alert mode for
hardware drops")

Arnd, I have followed your recommendation to use 64-bit nanoseconds
timestamps. I would appreciate it if you could review this change.
Thanks!
