The x25 driver uses lock_kernel() implicitly through
its proto_ops wrapper. The makes the usage explicit
in order to get rid of that wrapper and to better document

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

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.

Vitezslav Samel discovered that since 2.6.30.4+ active FTP can not work
over NAT. The "cause" of the problem was a fix of unacknowledged data
detection with NAT (commit a3a9f79e36).
However, actually, that fix uncovered a long standing bug in TCP conntrack:
when NAT was enabled, we simply updated the max of the right edge of
the segments we have seen (td_end), by the offset NAT produced with
changing IP/port in the data. However, we did not update the other parameter
(td_maxend) which is affected by the NAT offset. Thus that could drift
away from the correct value and thus resulted breaking active FTP.
The patch below fixes the issue by *not* updating the conntrack parameters
from NAT, but instead taking into account the NAT offsets in conntrack in a
consistent way. (Updating from NAT would be more harder and expensive because
it'd need to re-calculate parameters we already calculated in conntrack.)
