Michael Abbott 5f8c3c8edf Make ioctl.h compatible with userland
The attached patch seems to already exist in a number of branches -- it
keeps popping up on Google for me, and is certainly already in Debian --
but is strangely absent from mainstream.

The problem appears to be that the patched file ends up as part of the
target toolchain, but unfortunately the gcc constant folding doesn't
appear to eliminate the __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC value early
enough.  Certainly compiling C++ programs which use _IO...  macros as
constants fails without this patch.

/* ioctl command encoding: 32 bits total, command in lower 16 bits,

* is useful for catching programs compiled with old versions
* and to avoid overwriting user space outside the user buffer area.
* The highest 2 bits are reserved for indicating the ``access mode''.

* this explicit here. Please be sure to use the decoding macros
