#1294343 — [PATCH 2/5] Handle leap seconds in mktime64()

Handle leap seconds in mktime64() - where the seconds parameter is the
value 60 - by treating it the same as 59.

This facility will be used by the X.509 parser.  Doing it in mktime64()
makes the policy common to the whole kernel and easier to find.

Whilst we're at it, remove the const markers from all the parameters since
they don't really achieve anything and we do need to alter the sec
parameter.
