    linux: Add helper function to optimize 64-bit time_t fallback support
    
    These helper functions are used to optimize the 64-bit time_t support on
    configurations that requires support for 32-bit time_t fallback
    (!__ASSUME_TIME64_SYSCALLS).  The idea is once the kernel advertises that
    it does not have 64-bit time_t support, glibc will stop to try issue the
    64-bit time_t syscall altogether.
    
    For instance:
    
      #ifndef __NR_symbol_time64
      # define __NR_symbol_time64 __NR_symbol
      #endif
      int r;
      if (supports_time64 ())
        {
          r = INLINE_SYSCALL_CALL (symbol, ...);
          if (r == 0 || errno != ENOSYS)
            return r;
    
          mark_time64_unsupported ();
        }
      #ifndef __ASSUME_TIME64_SYSCALLS
      <32-bit fallback syscall>
      #endif
      return r;
    
    On configuration with default 64-bit time_t this optimization should be
    optimized away by the compiler resulting in no overhead.
