commit c48f350f "bnx2x: Add MFW dump support" added the bnx2x_update_mfw_dump() function that reads the current time and stores it in a 32-bit field that gets passed into a buffer in a fixed format. This is potentially broken when the epoch overflows in 2038, and otherwise overflows in 2106. As we're trying to avoid uses of struct timeval for this reason, I noticed the addition of this function, and tried to rewrite it in a way that is more explicit about the overflow and that will keep working once we deprecate struct timeval. I assume that it is not possible to change the ABI any more, otherwise we should try to use a 64-bit field for the seconds right away.
