On y2038 safe 32-bit systems the Linux kernel expects itimerval and rusage to use a 32-bit time_t, even though the other time_t's are 64-bit. There are currently no plans to make 64-bit time_t versions of these structs. There are also other occurrences where the time passed to the kernel via timeval doesn't match the wordsize. To handle these cases let's define a new macro __KERNEL_OLD_TIMEVAL_MATCHES_TIMEVAL64. This macro specifies if the kernel's old_timeval matches the new timeval64. This should be 1 for 64-bit architectures except for Alpha's osf syscalls. The define should be 0 for 32-bit architectures and Alpha's osf syscalls.

This hierarchy supports Linux systems using the new asm-generic/unistd.h, which removes many familiar old syscalls. For example, to implement open(), newer Linux architectures require glibc to invoke the __NR_openat syscall with AT_FDCWD. This hierarchy provides all those implementations. It also provides support for 32-bit platforms using the 64-bit kernel syscall APIs, as the 32-bit ones are no longer provided. Note that newer ILP32 environments (x32 or AArch64:ILP32, for example) are converting to use more 64-bit types in kernel syscalls, so that aspect of this support is in more flux as of this writing.
