x32: Fix alignment fail in struct compat_siginfo Adding struct _sigchld_x32 caused a misalignment cascade in struct siginfo, because union _sifields is located on an 4-byte boundary (8-byte misaligned.) Adding new fields that are 8-byte aligned caused the intermediate structures to also be aligned to 8 bytes, thereby adding padding in unexpected places. Thus, change s64 to compat_s64 here, which makes it "misaligned on paper". In reality these fields *are* actually aligned (there are 3 preceeding ints outside the union and 3 inside struct _sigchld_x32), but because of the intervening union and struct it is not possible for gcc to avoid padding without breaking the ABI.

x32: Switch to a 64-bit clock_t clock_t is used mainly to give the number of jiffies a certain process has burned. It is entirely feasible for a long-running process to consume more than 2^32 jiffies especially in a multiprocess system. As such, switch to a 64-bit clock_t for x32, just as we already switched to a 64-bit time_t. clock_t is only used in a handful of places, and as such it is really not a very significant change. The one that has the biggest impact is in struct siginfo, but since the *size* of struct siginfo doesn't change (it is padded to the hilt) it is fairly easy to make this a localized change. This also gets rid of sys_x32_times, however since this is a pretty late change don't compactify the system call numbers; we can reuse system call slot 521 next time we need an x32 system call.

generic compat_sys_ustat Due to a different size of ino_t ustat needs a compat handler, but currently only x86 and mips provide one. Add a generic compat_sys_ustat and switch all architectures over to it. Instead of doing various user copy hacks compat_sys_ustat just reimplements sys_ustat as it's trivial. This was suggested by Arnd Bergmann. Found by Eric Sandeen when running xfstests/017 on ppc64, which causes stack smashing warnings on RHEL/Fedora due to the too large amount of data writen by the syscall.
