mips: use __kernel_{uid,gid}32_t in uapi/asm/stat.h

Commit 8c1a381a4fbb ("mips: add asm/stat.h to UAPI compile-test
coverage") converted as follows:

uid_t --> __kernel_uid_t
gid_t --> __ker

mips: use __kernel_{uid,gid}32_t in uapi/asm/stat.h

Commit 8c1a381a4fbb ("mips: add asm/stat.h to UAPI compile-test
coverage") converted as follows:

uid_t --> __kernel_uid_t
gid_t --> __kernel_gid_t

The bit width of __kernel_{uid,gid}_t is 16 or 32-bits depending on
architectures.

MIPS uses 32-bits for them as in include/uapi/asm-generic/posix_types.h,
so the previous conversion is probably fine, but let's stick to the
arch-independent conversion just in case.

The safe replacements across all architectures are:

uid_t --> __kernel_uid32_t
gid_t --> __kernel_gid32_t

as defined in include/linux/types.h.

A similar issue was reported for the android binder. [1]

The errors can be fixed by prefixing the types with __kernel_.

Then, remove the no-header-test entry from user/include/Makefile.

y2038: stat: avoid 'time_t' in 'struct stat'

The time_t definition may differ between user space and kernel space,
so replace time_t with an unambiguous 'long' for the mips and sparc.

The same structures also contain 'off_t', which has the same problem,
so replace that as well on those two architectures and powerpc.

License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.

Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.

GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:

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".

This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.

Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)

SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

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.
