Subject: [PATCH] killall,pstree use clock_gettime not uptime

/proc/uptime can become a container uptime in LXC containers
but the process start time is still relative to the boot time.

This means things like "newer than" or "older than" will be incorrect
in some containers, using clock_gettime() fixes this as its always the
hosts boot time.
