This is because the application code or the libc do not guarantee zeroing of these. If used without zeroing, kernel might be at risk of using timespec values incorrectly. Originally it was handled correctly, but lost during is_compat_syscall() cleanup. Revert the condition back to check CONFIG_64BIT.
