__kernel_old_timespec is the correct type for sys_futex() on all
architectures.
Maybe name the local variable 'ts' or 'ts_old' instead of 'ts32' then?

I had suggested having just a single function definition here, but having one
per argument type seems reasonable as well. Having one definition
per futex_op value would also be possible, but in that case I suppose
we need all 13 of them, not just two.
