[PATCH v2 6/7] y2038: linux: Provide __clock_gettime64 implementation


This patch provides new __clock_gettime64 explicit 64 bit function for
getting the value of specified clock ID. Moreover, a
32 bit version - __clock_gettime has been refactored to internally use
__clock_gettime64.

The __clock_gettime is now supposed to be used on 32 bit systems -
hence the necessary checks and conversion to 64 bit type. After this
change it is intrinsically Y2038 safe.

The new 64 bit syscall (clock_gettime64) available from Linux
5.1+ has been used when applicable on 32 bit systems.

The __ASSUME_64BIT_TIME flag indicates if the Linux kernel provides 64 bit
version of clock_gettime (i.e. clock_gettime64). If defined - return
value is returned unconditionally. If not - the 32 bit version of this
syscall is executed instead.

When working on 32 bit systems without Y2038 time support the
clock_gettime returns error when received tv_sec is wrong (i.e. overflowed).
Moreover, the correctness of tv_nsec is checked.

The execution path on 64 bit systems has not been changed or affected
in any way.

Tests:
- The code has been tested with x86_64/x86 (native compilation):
make PARALLELMFLAGS="-j8" && make xcheck PARALLELMFLAGS="-j8"

- Run specific tests on ARM/x86 32bit systems (qemu):
https://github.com/lmajewski/meta-y2038
and run tests:
https://github.com/lmajewski/y2038-tests/commits/master
on kernels with and without 64 bit time support.

No regressions were observed.

* include/time.h (__clock_gettime64):
  Add __clock_gettime alias according to __TIMESIZE define
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/clock_gettime.c (__clock_gettime):
  Refactor this function to be used only on 32 bit machines as a
  wrapper on __clock_gettime64.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/clock_gettime.c (__clock_gettime64): Add
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/clock_gettime.c (__clock_gettime64):
  Use clock_gettime64 kernel syscall (available from 5.1-rc1+
  Linux) by 32 bit Y2038 safe systems

---
Changes for v2:
- Add support for __ASSUME_64BIT_TIME flag when Linux kernel provides
  syscalls supporting 64 bit time on 32 bit systems
- Provide fallback to 32 bit version of clock_gettime when
  clock_gettime64 is not available
