    linux: fix ntp_gettime abi break (BZ# 30156)
    
    Between versions v2.11 and v2.12 struct ntptimeval got new fields.
    That wasn't a problem because new function ntp_gettimex was created
    (and made default) to support new struct.  Old ntp_gettime was not
    using new fields so it was safe to call with old struct
    definition.  Then commits 5613afe9e3dff and b6ad64b907a (added for
    64 bit time_t support), ntp_gettime start setting new fields.
    
    Sets fields manually to maintain compatibility with v2.11 struct
    definition.
    
    Resolves #30156
