On 32-bit architectures with a 64-bit time_t, such as armhf in Debian
13, printing the time_t values with %lu warns:
pidfd_test.c:523:50: warning: format '%lu' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 2 has type 'time_t' {aka 'long long int'} [-Wformat=]
Cast them to long long and print them with %lld.

Found with a 32-bit build of the selftests with a 64-bit time_t (gcc 16
and clang 21 with -m32 -D_TIME_BITS=64 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64);
KernelCI's 32-bit arm builds show the same warnings. The changed files
build without format warnings there now, and the x86_64 builds don't
change. The other selftests get the same kind of fix in separate
patches.
