y2038: Provide aliases for compat helpers
As part of the system call rework for 64-bit time_t, we are restructuring the way that compat syscalls deal with 32-bit time_t, reusing the implementation for 32-bit architectures. Christoph Hellwig suggested a rename of the associated types and interfaces to avoid the confusing usage of the 'compat' prefix for 32-bit architectures. To prepare for doing that in linux-4.20, add a set of macros that allows to convert subsystems separately to the new names and avoids some of the nastier merge conflicts.
