I took your code above verbatim, but should I really be following the
example of ktime_mono_to_any()? (With the seqlock, and maybe also the
more general prototype in case someone needs the other conversions.)--b.

sunrpc: simplify cache expiry times

We've been rolling our own conversion between wallclock and boot time in
get_expiry() and convert_to_wallclock(). Thomas Gleixner suggests it
would be simpler to use nanoseconds since boot stored in time_t
internally, and create common helpers for the conversion in
kernel/time/timekeeping.c.
