This uses the deprecated time_t type but is write-only, and could be removed, but as Jeff explains, having a timestamp can be usefule for post-mortem analysis in crash dumps.

In order to remove one of the last instances of time_t, this changes the type to time64_t, same as j_trans_start_time.

Posting this patch as an alternative now, while waiting for Jeff to reply on how important this really is. --- fs/reiserfs/reiserfs.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
