Description

It seems that sys_gettimeofday() was replaced with __x64_sys_gettimeofday(), it should be updated in the book too

Contributor guide

Research direction
Search the book source for occurrences of 'sys gettimeofday' and replace with ' x64 sys gettimeofday'. Verify the change is consistent with current Linux kernel naming.
