So do we really need the union here?  What about:

 (1) keep the typedef instead of removing it
 (2) switch the typedef to be just a __be64, and use trivial helpers
     to extract the two separate legacy sec/nsec field
 (3) PROFIT!!!

I think passing ts by value might lead to somewhat better code
generation on modern ABIs (and older ABIs just fall back to pass
by reference transparently).

Do we want a helper for this condition?

Nit: for these kinds of symmetric conditions and if/else feels a little
more natural.

This adds a > 80 char line.

This calculation is dupliated in two places, might be worth
adding a little helper (which will need to get the sec/nsec values
passed separately due to the different structures).

Another line over 8 characters here.

This is really a comment on the earlier patch, but maybe we should
name the old constants with "OLD" or "LEGACY" or "SMALL" in the name?

Is there any good reason to mark this experimental?
