Geert Uytterhoeven 4c093cbb89 Documentation: timers: hrtimers: Make hybrid union historical
Non-scalar time was removed from the ktime hybrid union in v3.17, and
the union itself followed suit in v4.10.

Make it clear that ktime_t is always a 64bit scalar type, to avoid
confusing the casual reader.

While at it, fix a spelling mistake.

Fixes: 24e4a8c3e8 ("ktime: Kill non-scalar ktime_t implementation for 2038")
Fixes: 2456e85535 ("ktime: Get rid of the union")

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.
