Yeah 32bit archs in general can't do that, and you have to use the right
macros because otherwise gcc falls back to its own built-ins, and those
don't exist in the kernel since the kernel isn't (cannot!) linked against
any userspace library.

For pretty much this reasons it's really good to build test against 32bit
x86, or probably more relevant these days, 32bit arm.

Cheers, Daniel
