On m68k (32-bit only, no compat32), XFS fails to build in linux-next:

    [XFS] Move compat ioctl structs & numbers into xfs_ioctl32.h

    This makes the c file less cluttered and a bit more
    readable.   Consistently name the ioctl number
    macros with "_32" and the compatibility stuctures
    with "_compat."  Rename the helpers which simply
    copy in the arg with "_copyin" for easy identification.

    Finally, for a few of the existing helpers, modify them
    so that they directly call the native ioctl helper
    after userspace argument fixup.
