That means we have to set ARCH_PACK_STATFS64 in the arm64 header files
though, and propagate the OABI alignment to arm64/ilp32 as well, rather
than using the 88-byte version that every other 32-bit architecture
except for x86-32 and arm32 has.

Another option would be to set "#define __statfs_word __u64" and use
the 64-bit statfs call, instead of compat_sys_statfs64, but that in turn
requires special-casing statfs in libc.
