This provides a reusable time difference function which returns the difference in
microseconds, as often used in the DCCP code.

Commiter note: renamed ktime_delta to ktime_us_delta and put it in ktime.h.

<title>[TCP]: Congestion control API RTT sampling fix</title>

Commit 164891aadf1721fca4dce473bb0e0998181537c6 broke RTT
sampling of congestion control modules. Inaccurate timestamps
could be fed to them without providing any way for them to
identify such cases. Previously RTT sampler was called only if
FLAG_RETRANS_DATA_ACKED was not set filtering inaccurate
timestamps nicely. In addition, the new behavior could give an
invalid timestamp (zero) to RTT sampler if only skbs with
TCPCB_RETRANS were ACKed. This solves both problems.

Some smarty went and inflicted ktime_t as a typedef upon us, so we cannot
forward declare it.

Create a new `union ktime', map ktime_t onto that.  Now we need to kill off
this ktime_t thing.

The 32 bit implementation of ktime_to_ns returns unsigned value, while the
64 bit version correctly returns an signed value.  There is no current user
affected by this, but it has to be fixed, as ktime values can be negative.

Frank v.  Waveren pointed out that on 64bit machines the timespec to
ktime_t conversion might overflow.  This is also true for timeval to
ktime_t conversions.  This breaks a "sleep inf" on 64bit machines.

While a timespec/timeval with tx.sec = MAX_LONG is valid by specification
the internal representation of ktime_t is based on nanoseconds.  The
conversion of seconds to nanoseconds overflows for seconds values &gt;=
(MAX_LONG / NSEC_PER_SEC).

Check the seconds argument to the conversion and limit it to the maximum
time which can be represented by ktime_t.
