The real-time clock on m68k (and powerpc) mac systems uses an unsigned 32-bit value starting in 1904, which overflows in 2040, about two years later than everyone else, but this gets wrapped around in the Linux code in 2038 already because of the deprecated usage of time_t and/or long in the conversion. Getting rid of the deprecated interfaces makes it work until 2040 as documented, and it could be easily extended by reinterpreting the resulting time64_t as a positive number. For the moment, I'm adding a WARN_ON() that triggers if we encounter a time before 1970 or after 2040 (the two are indistinguishable). This brings it in line with the corresponding code that we have on powerpc macintosh.

README
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
