Ok, moving it to the TP_printk() as Steven suggested.

This is just a cosmetic fix, it can be a separate patch if you care. The idea
is to print the numbers as normal decimal representation, e.g. 0.001000
for a millisecond instead of the nonstandard 0.1000.

No idea, you have to ask the author of commit 7d99b7d634d8 ("[PATCH]
Validate and
sanitze itimer timeval from userspace") ;-)

I'm removing the inline version in a later patch along with most of the rest of
include/linux/time32.h.
Having the macro version is convenient for this patch, since I'm using it
on two different structures (itimerval/__kernel_old_timeval and
old_itimerval32/old_timeval32), neither of which is the type used in the
inline function.
I could use two local inline functions instead of the macro, or just open
code both call sites if you prefer that.
