From df0cc0539b4127bd02f64de2c335b4af1fdb3845 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Sun, 31 Aug 2008 08:09:53 -0700 Subject: select: add a timespec_add_safe() function For the select() rework, it's important to be able to add timespec structures in an overflow-safe manner. This patch adds a timespec_add_safe() function for this which is similar in operation to ktime_add_safe(), but works on a struct timespec.
