asm-generic: add generic sysv ipc headers
The ipc64 data structures were originally meant to be architecture specific so that each architecture could add their own optimizations for padding. In the end, most of them just copied the x86 version, and most got that wrong. UClibc expects the x86 anyway, so we might just declare that the default and get rid of the extra copies.

+ * generic msqid64_ds structure.
+ *
+ * Note extra padding because this structure is passed back and forth
+ * between kernel and user space.
+ *
+ * msqid64_ds was originally meant to be architecture specific, but
+ * everyone just ended up making identical copies without specific
+ * optimizations, so we may just as well all use the same one.
+ *
+ * 64 bit architectures typically define a 64 bit __kernel_time_t,
+ * so they do not need the first three padding words.
+ * On big-endian systems, the padding is in the wrong place.
+ *
+ * Pad space is left for:
+ * - 64-bit time_t to solve y2038 problem
+ * - 2 miscellaneous 32-bit values
