This is a cleanup to prepare for the addition of 64-bit time_t in O_SNDTIMEO/O_RCVTIMEO. The existing compat handler seems unnecessarily complex and error-prone, moving it all into the main setsockopt()/getsockopt() implementation requires half as much code and is easier to extend.
32-bit user space can now use old_timeval32 on both 32-bit and 64-bit machines, while 64-bit code can use __old_kernel_timeval.
