Brian Norris 53bb724f94 mtd: provide proper 32/64-bit compat_ioctl() support for BLKPG
After a bit of poking around wondering why my 32-bit user-space can't
seem to send a proper ioctl(BLKPG) to an MTD on my 64-bit kernel
(ARM64), I noticed that struct blkpg_ioctl_arg is actually pretty
unsuitable for use in the ioctl() ABI, due to its use of raw pointers,
and its lack of alignment/packing restrictions (32-bit arch'es tend to
pack the 4 fields into 4 32-bit words, whereas 64-bit arch'es would add
padding after the third int, and make this 6 32-bit words).

Anyway, this means BLKPG deserves some special compat_ioctl handling. Do
the conversion in a small shim for MTD.

block/compat_ioctl.c already has compat support for the block subsystem,
but it does so by a re-marshalling data to/from user-space (see
compat_blkpg_ioctl()). Personally, I think this approach is cleaner.

Tested only on MTD, with an ARM32 user space on an ARM64 kernel.

* Partition table and disk geometry handling
*
* A single ioctl with lots of subfunctions:
*
* Device number stuff:
* get_whole_disk() (given the device number of a partition,
* find the device number of the encompassing disk)
* get_all_partitions() (given the device number of a disk, return the
* device numbers of all its known partitions)
*
* Partition stuff:
* add_partition()
* delete_partition()
* test_partition_in_use() (also for test_disk_in_use)
*
* Geometry stuff:
* get_geometry()
* set_geometry()
* get_bios_drivedata()
*
* For today, only the partition stuff - aeb, 990515
