[RFC 2/4] v4l: Helper function for obtaining timestamps

[Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@iki.fi>]

v4l2_get_timestamp() produces a monotonic timestamp but unlike
ktime_get_ts(), it uses struct timeval instead of struct timespec, saving
the drivers the conversion job when getting timestamps for v4l2_buffer's
timestamp field.
