These are already already merged.

Hmm, I didn't see them in the list of time64 calls somehow. Nor is
there a _time64 syscall number available for them. What did I miss ?
Or the original syscalls only support the 64bit timespec and there is
no separate time64 variant ?

Ahh, if I understand correct you are only talking about the cases
where the syscall is called directly without the libc wrapper, right ?
We can't use timeval/timespec there anymore.

Okay, will have a look at them as well.

Thanks for the information.
