NET: random : secure_tcp_sequence_number should not assume CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR
[NET] random : secure_tcp_sequence_number should not assume CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR [ Upstream commit: 6dd10a62 ] All 32 bits machines but i386 dont have CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR. On these machines, ktime.tv64 is more than 4 times the (correct) result given by ktime_to_ns() Again on these machines, using ktime_get_real().tv64 >> 6 give a 32bits rollover every 64 seconds, which is not wanted (less than the 120 s MSL) Using ktime_to_ns() is the portable way to get nsecs from a ktime, and have correct code.
