x86/vdso: Change time() prototype to match __vdso_time()
gcc-8 warns that time() is an alias for __vdso_time() but the two have different prototypes: arch/x86/entry/vdso/vclock_gettime.c:327:5: error: 'time' alias between functions of incompatible types 'int(time_t *)' {aka 'int(long int *)'} and 'time_t(time_t *)' {aka 'long int(long int *)'} [-Werror=attribute-alias] int time(time_t *t) ^~~~ arch/x86/entry/vdso/vclock_gettime.c:318:16: note: aliased declaration here I could not figure out whether this is intentional, but I see that changing it to return time_t avoids the warning. Returning 'int' from time() is also a bit questionable, as it causes an overflow in y2038 even on 64-bit architectures that use a 64-bit time_t type. On 32-bit architecture with 64-bit time_t, time() should always be implement by the C library by calling a (to be added) clock_gettime() variant that takes a sufficiently wide argument.
