commit dc7497795e014d84699c3b8809ed6df35352dd74 upstream.

snd_seq_check_queue() passes the current tick and time of the given
queue as a pointer to snd_seq_prioq_cell_out(), but those might be
updated concurrently by the seq timer update.

Fix it by retrieving the current tick and time via the proper helper
functions at first, and pass those values to snd_seq_prioq_cell_out()
later in the loops.

snd_seq_timer_get_cur_time() takes a new argument and adjusts with the
current system time only when it's requested so; this update isn't
needed for snd_seq_check_queue(), as it's called either from the
interrupt handler or right after queuing.

Also, snd_seq_timer_get_cur_tick() is changed to read the value in the
spinlock for the concurrency, too.

<title>ALSA: seq_timer: use monotonic times internally</title>

The sequencer client manager reports timestamps in units of unsigned
32-bit seconds/nanoseconds, but that does not suffer from the y2038
overflow because it stores only the delta since the 'last_update'
time was recorded.

However, the use of the do_gettimeofday() function is problematic
and we have to replace it to avoid the overflow on on 32-bit
architectures.

This uses 'struct timespec64' to record 'last_update', and changes
the code to use monotonic timestamps that do not suffer from leap
seconds and settimeofday updates.

As a side-effect, the code can now use the timespec64_sub() helper
and become more readable and also avoid a multiplication to convert
from microseconds to nanoseconds.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
