Process events: Fix biarch compatibility

[Matt Helsley <matthltc@us.ibm.com>]

Argh! I neglected to put linux-kernel on the cc list. Patch is
unchanged.

Andrew, I'd like to revise my request and shoot for eventual inclusion
in 2.6.18 if it's not too much to ask. What do you think?

Cheers,
	-Matt Helsley

Subject: Process events: Fix biarch compatibility

Switch timestamp to two 32-bit scalars instead of two long fields of
a timespec struct. This fixes an issue with biarch systems where the kernel was
sending two 64-bit fields and a naive 32-bit userspace program was expecting
two 32-bit fields. Naive userspace applications that used the timespec directly
are broken. This allows more of the naieve apps to work correctly and all apps 
that are correct to continue to work.

I submitted a different solution as an RFC earlier and have since switched to
the solution recommended by Evgeniy Polyakov.

Compiles with linux-2.6.17-mm6, boots, and tested with and without -m32 on x86-64.

Andrew, please consider this patch for inclusion in -mm.

Thanks,
	-Matt Helsley
