It was raised on libc-help [1] that some Linux kernel interfaces expect
the libc to define __USE_TIME_BITS64 to indicate the time_t size for the
kABI. Different than defined by the initial y2038 design document [2],
the __USE_TIME_BITS64 is only defined for ABIs that support more than
one time_t size (by defining the _TIME_BITS for each module).
The 64 bit time_t redirects are now enabled using a different internal
define (__USE_TIME64_REDIRECTS). There is no expected change in semantic
or code generation.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, aarch64-linux-gnu, and

The generic Linux struct_stat misses the conditionals to use
bits/struct_stat_time64_helper.h in the __USE_TIME_BITS64 for
architecture that uses __TIMESIZE == 32 (currently csky and nios2).
Since newer ports should not support 32 bit time_t, the generic
implementation should be used as default.
For arm, hppa, and sh a copy of default struct_stat is added,
while for csky and nios a new one based on generic is used, along
with conditionals to use bits/struct_stat_time64_helper.h.
The default struct_stat is also replaced with the generic one.
Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu and arm-linux-gnueabihf.
