game of thrones - Chronology: White walkers and Children of the forest

In the television series of Game of Thrones, in series 6, episode 5 it is revealed that




the white walkers were created by the children of the forest, apparently to aid them in a war against men.




But where does this fit, chronologically? While it is stated both in the books and television lore series that the first men and children of the forest waged war upon one another, it also seems to suggest that the hostilities came to an end, and then later on the long night occurred (relating to the appearance of the white walkers)



So is this reason given for the creation of the white walkers a lie, is it retconned, or is there some other explanation?
