[PATCH v2] nptl: Unconditionally use a 32-byte rseq area

If the kernel headers provide a larger struct rseq, we used that
size as the argument to the rseq system call. As a result,
rseq registration would fail on older kernels which only accept
size 32.
Tested on x86_64-linux-gnu. Built with build-many-glibcs.py.
This needs to be backported all the way to glibc 2.35.

v2: Drop further struct rseq reference on ia64. Remove #include <sys/rseq.h>.
