Introduce a new module linux_common.ko which is intended for the
following primary purposes:

1. Remove the dependency of linsysfs and linprocfs modules from linux.ko,
which will be architecture specific on amd64.

2. Incorporate into linux_common.ko general code for platforms on which
we'll support two Linuxulator modules (for both instruction set - 32 & 64 bit).

3. Move malloc(9) declaration to linux_common.ko, to enable getting memory
usage statistics properly.

Currently linux_common.ko incorporates a code from linux_mib.c and linux_util.c
and linprocfs, linsysfs and linux kernel modules depend on linux_common.ko.

Temporarily remove dtrace garbage from linux_mib.c and linux_util.c

- >500 static DTrace probes for the linuxulator
- DTrace scripts to check for errors, performance, ...
they serve mostly as examples of what you can do with the static probe;s
with moderate load the scripts may be overwhelmed, excessive lock-tracing
may influence program behavior (see the last design decission)

Design decissions:
- use "linuxulator" as the provider for the native bitsize; add the
bitsize for the non-native emulation (e.g. "linuxuator32" on amd64)
- Add probes only for locks which are acquired in one function and released
in another function. Locks which are aquired and released in the same
function should be easy to pair in the code, inter-function
locking is more easy to verify in DTrace.
- Probes for locks should be fired after locking and before releasing to
prevent races (to provide data/function stability in DTrace, see the
man-page of "dtrace -v ..." and the corresponding DTrace docs).

Revert r220032:linux compat: add SO_PASSCRED option with basic handling

I have not properly thought through the commit. After r220031 (linux
compat: improve and fix sendmsg/recvmsg compatibility) the basic
handling for SO_PASSCRED is not sufficient as it breaks recvmsg
functionality for SCM_CREDS messages because now we would need to handle
sockcred data in addition to cmsgcred. And that is not implemented yet.

Rename st_*timespec fields to st_*tim for POSIX 2008 compliance.

A nice thing about POSIX 2008 is that it finally standardizes a way to
obtain file access/modification/change times in sub-second precision,
namely using struct timespec, which we already have for a very long
time. Unfortunately POSIX uses different names.

This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still
build properly. Also change all source code in the kernel to work
without any of the compatibility macros. This makes it all a less
ambiguous.

I am also renaming st_birthtime to st_birthtim, even though it was a
local extension anyway. It seems Cygwin also has a st_birthtim.
