The get_expiry() function currently returns a timestamp, and uses the special return value of 0 to indicate an error. Unfortunately this causes a problem when 0 is the correct return value. On a system with no RTC it is possible that the boot time will be seen to be "3". When exportfs probes to see if a particular filesystem supports NFS export it tries to cache information with an expiry time of "3". The intention is for this to be "long in the past". Even with no RTC it will not be far in the future (at most a second or two) so this is harmless. But if the boot time happens to have been calculated to be "3", then get_expiry will fail incorrectly as it converts the number to "seconds since bootime" - 0. To avoid this problem we change get_expiry() to report the error quite separately from the expiry time. The error is now the return value. The expiry time is reported through a by-reference parameter.

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.
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.
