This patch is concerned with migrating the time variables for the s390
network driver. The changes handle the y2038 problem where timespec will
overflow in the year 2038. timespec was replaced by unsigned long and
all time variables get their values from the jiffies global variable.
This was done for the sake of speed and efficiency. 

ch->prof.tx_time will now hold the difference between two jiffies' 
values instead of the difference between two xtime values 
represented in microseconds.

v1: Arnd has advised me to provide you with options for time
    calculation. The first option: "accuracy" is used in this
    patch. The second option: "speed" can be done through
    jiffies.

v2: Moved on to the speed option. Let me know if I explicitly
    need to include the jiffies header. The module compiles with
    no problems on my side.

v3: Handled the error pointed out by Ursula. The current version
    does not handle overflows. There are two solutions for this.
    The first is to use jiffies_64 since s/390 is a 64-bit
    architecture after all. The second is to use wrapper functions
    like time_before and time_after. Two files were added too.
    They are: ctcm_main.c and netiucv.c. This patch could be sent
    as a patchset in its final version for convenience.

v4: removed #include <linux/jiffies.h> per Ursula's feedback.
    Changed duration to hold the difference between jiffies
    instead of difference between microsecond values per Arnd's
    suggestion.
