We have been using long long cast to print timespec64 tv_sec.

I'm not sure what format specifier we would use if we cast to s64.
printk-formats suggests %lld or %llx.
Meaning a cast to long long.

dma_addr_t can be u64 or u32 based on architecture be it 32 bit or 64 bit.
But, timespec64 tv_sec is always s64. This is the opposite problem
from dma_addr_t that it is 64 bits regardless of architecture.
So, wouldn't it be easier to use long long cast for tv_sec and then
print tv_nsec as long?
