Building uclibc 1.0.37 for SuperH architecture with linux-headers 5.10.7
fails at libpthread level due to missing time-related data structures,
usually defined by the kernel.
Define those missing data structures in SuperH-specific kernel_types.h.
Context: building for sh4eb-r2d[1] and sh4-r2d[1] boards emulations for
QEMU using the buildroot image generation tool.
Regarding the issue, a patch[3] was already issued in the kernel some
time ago, which aimed to solve precisely this problem. After coming up
with a quick and dirty patch for buildroot modifying Linux headers[4],
some discussion was sparked on the subject with Linux folks[5]. Some
analyzing later, conclusion was that:
1) Previously mentioned patch[4] was fixing the symptom, not the ill
2) SuperH-specific code in uclibc could be patched instead, to solve
the problem for other use cases (e.g. building just a toolchain)

Linux 3.4 added __kernel_long_t and __kernel_ulong_t and various
exported header files were updated to use these new types. Add the
definitions for __kernel_long_t and __kernel_ulong_t to the relevant
kernel_types.h headers.
This change was automated with the following scriptlet
git grep --name-only 'typedef.*__kernel_old_dev_t' \
| xargs sed -i '/typedef.*__kernel_old_dev_t/ a\
typedef long\t\t__kernel_long_t;\
typedef unsigned long\t__kernel_ulong_t;'
Whitespace in arm, avr32, hppa, sparc was then manually fixed up.

Here's a cleaned up patch which should get the whitespace right. I'm a
bit iffy about the sparc changes they make sense to me but it's not a
platform I have access to.
I can break this up per arch or per maintainer if requested.

Recent SH kernel headers merge 32-bit and 64-bit headers, changing the
include guards on asm/posix_types.h in the process; update uClibc code
depending on those include guards.

'__kernel_old_dev_t'. And of course there is no good way to know
which is in use except checking linux/version.h. Grumble.
This is rather lame, but for now, define __kernel_old_dev_t to be
the same as __kernel_dev_t. This will want to be revisited soon.
