kernel/libc uapi changes for y2038
...lest case (e.g. klibc) where the user-visible structures come directly
from the kernel uapi headers.
I still don't know what model the various libc developers prefer, so here is
an alternative approach, as a patch on top of the previous series:
Now, we rename the original structures to struct __old_kernel_*, and use a
macro to define either the __old_kernel_* or the __kernel_* structure name
to the name we actually want in user space, based on a __KERNEL_TIME_BITS
macro that can be set to either 32 or 64 for 32-bit architectures by
the libc. Depending on that macro, the compiler will either see one
