I'm still on 4.4 kernel. So I need it. I'll drop __IPC_64 if unneeded on
rebase. Usually I rebase on rc5 or rc6.

Almost all ports define its own struct kernel_stat / kernel_stat64.
in "kernel_header.h" See mips, spark, alpha, i386... Some also define
function xstat_conv or similar. With all that defined, it's expected
that one of generic xstat wrappers will work properly. I tried all,
and noone got working, so I wrote this hack to make it work somehow.
