The situation for Arm is fundamentally different from that for ARC.

For ARC, you only need a single public stat structure (using 64-bit times 
and offsets).

For Arm, a third public stat structure will need to be added alongside the 
existing two, initially used internally in 64-bit-time stat functions that 
aren't exported from glibc, eventually to be used with _TIME_BITS=64 with 
the 64-bit-time stat interfaces exported once all the _TIME_BITS=64 
interfaces are ready.
