[PATCH] security/seclvl.c: fix time wrap (CVE-2005-4352)
initlvl=2 in seclvl gives the guarantee "Cannot decrement the system time". But it was possible to set the time to the maximum unixtime value (19 Jan 2038) resulting in a wrap to the minimum value. This patch fixes this by disallowing setting the time to any date after 2030 with initlvl=2. This patch does not apply to kernel 2.6.19 since the seclvl module was already removed in this kernel.
