I think this code needs a check for COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in order
to handle x32 correctly.

It would be nice to introduce it in a separate patch, and then use it
to kill off
compat_sys_getrusage() and compat_sys_wait4(), and possibly even
compat_sys_waitid() in combination with your copy_siginfo_to_user_any().
That could be done as a cleanup patch afterwards, or as part of your series.
