I looked into this again, as I have some more patches on top now that
I wan to submit soon. The problem you ran into was fixed by Deepa's
"io_getevents: Use timespec64 to represent timeouts" patch that Al
Viro merged into vfs/for-next. It's currently in linux-net but not in
mainline, and I didn't notice the problem because I was building on
linux-next.

If you agree with this patch in principle, I'll resend it after the merge
window, applying this one will help with my "x86: convert x86_platform_ops
to timespec64" that needed a rather ugly workaround otherwise.
