Well, the change is bigger and less subtle.  Before this change the
constants were never visible to userspace at all (except on mips),
because the #ifdef CONFIG_64BIT it never set for userspace builds.

I can change this to #if __BITS_PER_LONG==32 || defined(__KERNEL__),
but it will still be change in what userspace sees.
