AFS uses a time based UUID to identify the host itself. This requires
getting a timestamp which is currently done through the getnstimeofday()
interface that we want to eventually get rid of.
Instead of replacing it with a ktime-based interface, simply remove the
entire function and use generate_random_uuid() instead, which has a v4
("completely random") UUID instead of the time-based one.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
