If it may help a bit, please also review/check the current status of
Y2038 work.

Some Y2038 related work (mostly for ARM32) may be also helpful as well
(as some patches for RV32 also do the conversion for other
architectures).

Please also find the meta layer for testing Y2038 (with some basic test
suite) code on qemu-arm and Yocto/OE:
https://github.com/lmajewski/meta-y2038

(it shall also be easy to extend this meta layer to add support for ARC
as well).
