time: Always make sure wall_to_monotonic isn't positive
commit e1d7ba8735551ed79c7a0463a042353574b96da3 upstream. Two issues were found on an IMX6 development board without an enabled RTC device(resulting in the boot time and monotonic time being initialized to 0). Issue 1:exportfs -a generate: "exportfs: /opt/nfs/arm does not support NFS export" Issue 2:cat /proc/stat: "btime 4294967236" The same issues can be reproduced on x86 after running the following code: int main(void) { struct timeval val; int ret; val.tv_sec = 0; val.tv_usec = 0; ret = settimeofday(&val, NULL); return 0; } Two issues are different symptoms of same problem: The reason is a positive wall_to_monotonic pushes boot time back to the time before Epoch, and getboottime will return negative value. In symptom 1: negative boot time cause get_expiry() to overflow time_t when input expire time is 2147483647, then cache_flush() always clears entries just added in ip_map_parse. In symptom 2: show_stat() uses "unsigned long" to print negative btime value returned by getboottime. This patch fix the problem by prohibiting time from being set to a value which would cause a negative boot time. As a result one can't set the CLOCK_REALTIME time prior to (1970 + system uptime).
