Using the socket ioctls on arch/sh (and only there) causes build time
problems when __kernel_old_timeval/__kernel_old_timespec are not already
visible to the compiler.
Add an explict include line for the header that defines these
structures.
Fixes: 8c709f9a0693 ("y2038: sh: remove timeval/timespec usage from headers")
Fixes: 0768e17073dc ("net: socket: implement 64-bit timestamps")

This header file escaped my earlier cleanups for removing
the in-kernel usage of timeval and timespec structs.
Replace them with the corresponding __kernel_old_* types.

The 'timeval' and 'timespec' data structures used for socket timestamps
are going to be redefined in user space based on 64-bit time_t in future
versions of the C library to deal with the y2038 overflow problem,
which breaks the ABI definition.
Unlike many modern ioctl commands, SIOCGSTAMP and SIOCGSTAMPNS do not
use the _IOR() macro to encode the size of the transferred data, so it
remains ambiguous whether the application uses the old or new layout.
The best workaround I could find is rather ugly: we redefine the command
code based on the size of the respective data structure with a ternary
operator. This lets it get evaluated as late as possible, hopefully after
that structure is visible to the caller. We cannot use an #ifdef here,
because inux/sockios.h might have been included before any libc header
that could determine the size of time_t.
The ioctl implementation now interprets the new command codes as always
referring to the 64-bit structure on all architectures, while the old
architecture specific command code still refers to the old architecture
specific layout. The new command number is only used when they are
actually different.

license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.
