Arnd Bergmann a554bf96b4 dev_ioctl: pass SIOCDEVPRIVATE data separately
The compat handlers for SIOCDEVPRIVATE are incorrect for any driver that
passes data as part of struct ifreq rather than as an ifr_data pointer, or
that passes data back this way, since the compat_ifr_data_ioctl() helper
overwrites the ifr_data pointer and does not copy anything back out.

Since all drivers using devprivate commands are now converted to the
new .ndo_siocdevprivate callback, fix this by adding the missing piece
and passing the pointer separately the whole way.

This further unifies the native and compat logic for socket ioctls,
as the new code now passes the correct pointer as well as the correct
data for both native and compat ioctls.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
