The RAID ioctls are only implemented in md.c, so the
handling for them should also be moved there from

Half the compat_ioctl handling is in devio.c, the other
half is in fs/compat_ioctl.c. This moves everything into
one place for consistency.
As a positive side-effect, push down the BKL into the
ioctl methods.

Instead of having each handler call compat_ptr, we can now
convert the pointer once and pass that to each handler.
This saves a little bit of both source and object code size.

The compat_ioctl table now only contains entries for
COMPATIBLE_IOCTL, so we only need to know if a number
is listed in it or now.
As an optimization, we hash the table entries with a
reversible transformation to get a more uniform distribution
over it, sort the table at startup and then guess the
position in the table when an ioctl number gets called
to do a linear search from there.
With the current set of ioctl numbers and the chosen
transformation function, we need an average of four
steps to find if a number is in the set, all of the
accesses within one or two cache lines.
This at least as good as the previous hash table
approach but saves 8.5 kb of kernel memory.

The compat_ioctl array now contains only entries for ioctl numbers
that do not require a separate handler. By special-casing the
ULONG_IOCTL case in the do_ioctl_trans function, we can kill the
final use of a function pointer in the array.

This makes all ioctl conversion handlers called from
a single switch statement, leaving only COMPATIBLE_IOCTL
and ULONG_IOCTL statements in the table. This is somewhat
more space efficient and also lets us simplify the
handling of the lookup table significantly.

We have always called ioctl conversion handlers under the big kernel lock,
although that is generally not necessary. In particular it is not needed
for conversion of data structures and for calling sys_ioctl or
do_vfs_ioctl, which will get the BKL again if needed.
Handlers doing more than those two have been moved out, so we can kill off
the BKL from compat_sys_ioctl. This may significantly improve latencies
with 32 bit applications, and it avoids a common scenario where a thread
acquires the BKL twice.

The VT driver now handles all of these ioctls directly, so we can remove
the handlers from common code.
These are the only handlers that require the BKL because they directly
perform the ioctl action rather than just converting the data structures.
Once they are gone, we can remove the BKL from the remaining ioctl
conversion handlers.

For FS_IOC_RESVSP and FS_IOC_RESVSP64 compat_sys_ioctl() uses its
arg argument as a pointer to userspace. However it is missing a
a call to compat_ptr() which will do a proper pointer conversion.

to vfs for compatibility with legacy xfs ioctls".

This removes the original socket compat_ioctl code
from fs/compat_ioctl.c and converts the code from the copy
in net/socket.c into a single function. We add a few cycles
of runtime to compat_sock_ioctl() with the long switch()
statement, but gain some cycles in return by simplifying
the call chain to get there.
Due to better inlining, save 1.5kb of object size in the
process, and enable further savings:

Slip and a few other drivers use the same ioctl numbers on
tty devices that are normally meant for sockets. This causes
problems with our compat_ioctl handling that tries to convert
the data structures in a different format.
Fortunately, these five drivers all use 32 bit compatible
data structures in the ioctl numbers, so we can just add
a trivial compat_ioctl conversion function to each of them.
SIOCSIFENCAP and SIOCGIFENCAP do not need to live in
fs/compat_ioctl.c after this any more, and they are not
used on any sockets.

The tun driver is the only code in the kernel that operates
on a character device with struct ifreq. Change the driver
to handle the conversion itself so we can contain the
remaining ifreq handling in the socket layer.
This also fixes a bug in the handling of invalid ioctl
numbers on an unbound tun device. The driver treats this
as a TUNSETIFF in native mode, but there is no way for
the generic compat_ioctl() function to emulate this
behaviour. Possibly the driver was only doing this
accidentally anyway, but if any code relies on this
misfeature, it now also works in compat mode.

The FIEMAP_IOC_FIEMAP mapping ioctl was missing a 32-bit compat handler,
which means that 32-bit suerspace on 64-bit kernels cannot use this ioctl
command.
The structure is nicely aligned, padded, and sized, so it is just this
simple.
Tested w/ 32-bit ioctl tester (from Josef) on a 64-bit kernel on ext4.

ioctls
This patch adds ioctls to vfs for compatibility with legacy XFS
pre-allocation ioctls (XFS_IOC_*RESVP*). The implementation
effectively invokes sys_fallocate for the new ioctls.
Also handles the compat_ioctl case.
Note: These legacy ioctls are also implemented by OCFS2.

Unlike a normal socket path, the tuntap device send path does
not have any accounting. This means that the user-space sender
may be able to pin down arbitrary amounts of kernel memory by
continuing to send data to an end-point that is congested.
Even when this isn't an issue because of limited queueing at
most end points, this can also be a problem because its only
response to congestion is packet loss. That is, when those
local queues at the end-point fills up, the tuntap device will
start wasting system time because it will continue to send
data there which simply gets dropped straight away.
Of course one could argue that everybody should do congestion
control end-to-end, unfortunately there are people in this world
still hooked on UDP, and they don't appear to be going away
anywhere fast. In fact, we've always helped them by performing
accounting in our UDP code, the sole purpose of which is to
provide congestion feedback other than through packet loss.
This patch attempts to apply the same bandaid to the tuntap device.
It creates a pseudo-socket object which is used to account our
packets just as a normal socket does for UDP. Of course things
are a little complex because we're actually reinjecting traffic
back into the stack rather than out of the stack.
The stack complexities however should have been resolved by preceding
patches. So this one can simply start using skb_set_owner_w.
For now the accounting is essentially disabled by default for
backwards compatibility. In particular, we set the cap to INT_MAX.
This is so that existing applications don't get confused by the
sudden arrival EAGAIN errors.
In future we may wish (or be forced to) do this by default.
