Thanks a lot for addressing this! I now see that I actually created a similar
bugfix for it back in January, but for some reason that got stuck in my
backlog and I never wrote a proper description for it or sent it out to the
list, sorry about that. I would hope we could find a way to have either
the compiler or sparse warn if we copy uninitialized data to user space,
but we now don't even check for that within the kernel any more.

I would suggest adding these tags to the patch, to ensure it gets backported
to stable kernels as needed:

time64 ABI")
