Call to fallocate with FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE on a device backed by a sparse
file can end up by missing data, zeroes data range, if the underlying file
is used with a tool like bmaptool which will referenced only used spaces.

We do not need to update the metadata (atime, mtime, etc)
on the UBD file and/or the COW file until UML exits.

UBD image mtime is checked in UML only when opening
the files. After that they are locked and used
exclusively by a single UML instance, so there is
no point wasting resources on updating metadata on
every sync. We can sync data only. The host will
always update mtime if a file has been modified upon
closing it.

This implements synchronized time-travel mode which - using a special
application on a unix socket - lets multiple machines take part in a
time-travelling simulation together.

The protocol for the unix domain socket is defined in the new file
include/uapi/linux/um_timetravel.h.

When building UML with glibc 2.17 installed, compilation
of arch/um/os-Linux/file.c fails due to failure to find
FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE definitions.

It appears that /usr/include/bits/fcntl-linux.h (indirectly
included by /usr/include/fcntl.h) does not include falloc.h
with an older glibc, whereas a more up-to-date version
does.

Adding the direct include to file.c resolves the issue
and does not cause problems for more recent glibc.

<title>um: ubd: use 64-bit time_t where possible</title>

The ubd code suffers from a possible y2038 overflow on 32-bit
architectures, both for the cow header and the os_file_modtime()
function.

Replace time_t with time64_t to extend the ubd_kern side as much
as possible.

Whether this makes a difference for the user side depends on
the host libc implementation that may use either 32-bit or 64-bit
time_t.

For the cow file format, the header contains an unsigned 32-bit
timestamp, which is good until y2106, passing this through a
'long long' gives us a consistent interpretation between 32-bit
and 64-bit um kernels.

Support for DISCARD and WRITE_ZEROES in the ubd driver using

DISCARD is enabled by default and can be disabled using a new

If the underlying fs on which the UBD image is stored does not
support DISCARD the support for both DISCARD and WRITE_ZEROES
is turned off.
