'struct video_event' is used for the VIDEO_GET_EVENT ioctl, implemented
by drivers/media/pci/ivtv/ivtv-ioctl.c and
drivers/media/pci/ttpci/av7110_av.c. The structure contains a 'time_t',
which will be redefined in the future to be 64-bit wide, causing an
incompatible ABI change for this ioctl.
As it turns out, neither of the drivers currently sets the timestamp
field, and it is presumably useless anyway because of the limited
resolutions (no sub-second times). This means we can simply change
the structure definition to use a 'long' instead of 'time_t' and
remain compatible with all existing user space binaries when time_t
gets changed.
If anybody ever starts using this field, they have to make sure not
to use 1970 based seconds in there, as those overflow in 2038.

Trivially fix those broken references, by copying the structs
fron the header, just like other API documentation at the
DVB side.
This doesn't have the level of quality used at the V4L2 side
of the API, but, as this documents a deprecated API, used
only by av7110 driver, it doesn't make much sense to invest
time making it better.

Kernel headers should use linux/types.h instead.
