compat: generic compat_sys_sched_rr_get_interval() implementation

This function is used by sparc, powerpc tile and arm64 for compat support.
 The patch adds a generic implementation with a wrapper for PowerPC to do
the u32->int sign extension.

The reason for a single patch covering powerpc, tile, sparc and arm64 is
to keep it bisectable, otherwise kernel building may fail with mismatched
function declarations.
