[LTP] [PATCH] syscalls: Fix issues around calling syscalls with old timespec

[Petr Vorel]

Hi Viresh,

checking for __kernel_timespec, which defined in include/tst_timer.h should fix
it, but we might need some more elegant solution (have that depende

Thanks! On a first look LGTM.
Unfortunately, there is failure on Centos 6 (gcc 4):

It's caused by this fallback definition ^, which is already in
include/tst_timer.h. Simple deleting it should fix the problem

Kind regards,
