Apparently __kernel_suseconds_t is `int' on PA-RISC (and on SPARC64),
while it's `long' on all other platforms.
Is there a specific reason for that?
I don't know for sure, but arch/parisc/kernel/syscall_table.S states:
/* even though manpage says struct timeval contains longs, ours has
* time_t and suseconds_t -- both of which are safe wide/narrow */
ENTRY_COMP(setitimer)
So it was probably chosen to be int so that it can be easily used in 32-
and 64bit kernels (or compat code).

This causes compiler warnings in the HP SDC Real Time Clock driver,
which is shared between PA-RISC and m68k:
