Description
Currently, np.linspace doesn't work when given np.datetime64 objects:
In [3]: d1 = np.datetime64(100, 'D')
In [4]: d2 = np.datetime64(200, 'D')
In [5]: d = np.linspace(d1, d2, 10)

TypeError: ufunc multiply cannot use operands with types dtype('<M8[D]') and dtype('float64')It would be nice for this to work out of the box.
