[PATCH v9 2/2] sysv: linux: Pass 64-bit version of semctl syscall

The semctl_syscall() function passes a union semun to the kernel. The
union includes struct semid_ds as a member. On 32-bit architectures the
Linux kernel provides a *_high version of the 32-bit sem_otime and
sem_ctime values. These can be combined to get a 64-bit version of the
time.

This patch adjusts the struct semid_ds to support the *_high versions
of sem_otime and sem_ctime. For 32-bit systems with a 64-bit time_t
this can be used to get a 64-bit time from the two 32-bit values.

Due to alignment differences between 64-bit and 32-bit variables we
also need to set nsems to ensure it's correct.
