/**
 * compat_ptr_ioctl - generic implementation of .compat_ioctl file operation
 *
 * This is not normally called as a function, but instead set in struct
 * file_operations as
 *
 *     .compat_ioctl = compat_ptr_ioctl,
 *
 * On most architectures, the compat_ptr_ioctl() just passes all arguments
 * to the corresponding ->ioctl handler. The exception is arch/s390, where
 * compat_ptr() clears the top bit of a 32-bit pointer value, so user space
 * pointers to the second 2GB alias the first 2GB, as is the case for
 * native 32-bit s390 user space.
 *
 * The compat_ptr_ioctl() function must therefore be used only with ioctl
 * functions that either ignore the argument or pass a pointer to a
 * compatible data type.
 *
 * If any ioctl command handled by fops->unlocked_ioctl passes a plain
 * integer instead of a pointer, or any of the passed data types
 * is incompatible between 32-bit and 64-bit architectures, a proper
 * handler is required instead of compat_ptr_ioctl.
