The series is aimed at making input events y2038 safe. It extends the lifetime of the realtime timestamps in the events to year 2106. The plan is to deprecate realtime timestamps anyway as they are not appropriate for these timestamps as noted in the patch a80b83b7b8 by John Stultz.
The series is a result of many discussions with Arnd Bergmann.
