time64 syscall is used only if it's the only one defined for the arch,
or if the requested timeout does not fit in 32 bits. on current 32-bit
archs where time_t is a 32-bit type, this makes it statically
unreachable.
on 64-bit archs, there is no change to the code after preprocessing.
on current 32-bit archs, the time is passed via an intermediate copy
to remove the assumption that time_t is a 32-bit type.
to avoid duplicating SYS_ipc/SYS_semtimedop choice logic, the code for
32-bit archs "falls through" after updating the timeout argument ts to
point to a [compound literal] array of longs. in preparation for
"time64-only" 32-bit archs, an extra case is added for neither SYS_ipc
nor the non-time64 SYS_semtimedop existing; the ENOSYS failure path
here should never be reachable, and is added just in case a compiler
can't see that it's not reachable, to avoid spurious static analysis
complaints.

Linux v5.1 introduced ipc syscalls on targets where previously only
SYS_ipc was available, change the logic such that the ipc code keeps
using SYS_ipc which works backward compatibly on older kernels.
This changes behaviour on microblaze which had both mechanisms, now
SYS_ipc will be used instead of separate syscalls.

this should not matter since the reality is that either all the sysv
sem syscalls are individual syscalls, or all of them are multiplexed
on the SYS_ipc syscall (depending on arch). but best to be consistent
anyway.

this is a Linux-specific extension to the sysv semaphore api.
