epoll: add syscall epoll_pwait2



Add syscall epoll_pwait2, an epoll_wait variant with nsec resolution that
replaces int timeout with struct timespec.  It is equivalent otherwise.

    int epoll_pwait2(int fd, struct epoll_event *events,
                     int maxevents,
                     const struct timespec *timeout,
                     const sigset_t *sigset);

The underlying hrtimer is already programmed with nsec resolution.
pselect and ppoll also set nsec resolution timeout with timespec.

The sigset_t in epoll_pwait has a compat variant. epoll_pwait2 needs
the same.

For timespec, only support this new interface on 2038 aware platforms
that define __kernel_timespec_t. So no CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME.
