The pstore conversion to timespec64 introduces its own method of passing
seconds into sscanf() and sprintf() type functions to work around the
timespec64 definition on 64-bit systems that redefine it to 'timespec'.
That hack is now finally getting removed, but that means we get a (harmless)
warning once both patches are merged:
fs/pstore/ram.c: In function 'ramoops_read_kmsg_hdr':
fs/pstore/ram.c:39:29: error: format '%ld' expects argument of type 'long int *', but argument 3 has type 'time64_t *' {aka 'long long int *'} [-Werror=format=]
#define RAMOOPS_KERNMSG_HDR "===="
^~~~~~
fs/pstore/ram.c:167:21: note: in expansion of macro 'RAMOOPS_KERNMSG_HDR'
This removes the pstore specific workaround and uses the same method that
we have in place for all other functions that print a timespec64.
Related to this, I found that the kasprintf() output contains an incorrect
nanosecond values for any number starting with zeroes, and I adapt the
format string accordingly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
