<title>vfs: fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handling</title>

<content type='text'>
We're doing some odd things there, which already messes up various users
(see the net/socket.c code that this removes), and it was going to add
yet more crud to the block layer because of the incorrect error code
translation.

ENOIOCTLCMD is not an error return that should be returned to user mode
from the "ioctl()" system call, but it should *not* be translated as
EINVAL ("Invalid argument").  It should be translated as ENOTTY
("Inappropriate ioctl for device").

That EINVAL confusion has apparently so permeated some code that the
block layer actually checks for it, which is sad.  We continue to do so
for now, but add a big comment about how wrong that is, and we should
remove it entirely eventually.  In the meantime, this tries to keep the
changes localized to just the EINVAL -&gt; ENOTTY fix, and removing code
that makes it harder to do the right thing.

<title>[media] fs/compat_ioctl: it needs to see the DVBv3 compat stuff</title>

Only the ioctl core should see the DVBv3 compat stuff, as its
contents are not available anymore to the drivers.

As fs/compat_ioctl also handles DVBv3 ioctl's, it needs those
definitions:

fixes following error seen on x86_64 kernel:
ioctl32(openl2tpd:7480): Unknown cmd fd(14) cmd(80487436){t:'t';sz:72} arg(ffa7e6c0) on socket:[105094]

The argument (struct pppol2tp_ioc_stats) uses "aligned_u64" and thus doesn't need
fixups.

<title>compat_ioctl: fix warning caused by qemu</title>

<id>urn:sha1:390192b300570b2bc721d77067ca133f58015ae8</id>
<content type='text'>
On Linux x86_64 host with 32bit userspace, running
qemu or even just "qemu-img create -f qcow2 some.img 1G"
causes a kernel warning:

ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(00005326){t:'S';sz:0} arg(7fffffff) on some.img
ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(801c0204){t:02;sz:28} arg(fff77350) on some.img

ioctl 00005326 is CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS,
ioctl 801c0204 is FDGETPRM.

The warning appears because the Linux compat-ioctl handler for these
ioctls only applies to block devices, while qemu also uses the ioctls on
plain files.

There's no sense on keeping it on 2.6.38, as nobody is using it
anymore, at the kernel tree, and installing it at the userspace
API.

As two deprecated drivers still need it, move it to their internal
directories.
