Newer 32-bit architectures e.g. riscv32 are using 64-bit time_t

if this condition is found then use 64-bit adjtime syscall


No major objections here. Though I'm feeling a little forgetful as to
why the test is calling the syscall directly instead of going through
libc.
I suspect it's likely due to the test being written prior to the libc
implementation being common?

So I wonder if a better fix would be just to drop the local
clock_adjtime implementation here, as I'm sure the libc has similar
logic to what's being added here?


The proposed solution works better than adding local clock_adjtime implementation
here.
