[PATCH 1/7] scsi/i2o_block: cleanup ioctl handling

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Wed Jul 07 2010 - 10:51:44 EST


This fixes the ioctl function of the i2o_block driver, which
has multiple problems:

* The BLKI2OSRSTRAT and BLKI2OSWSTRAT commands always return
-ENOTTY on success, where they should return 0.
* Support for 32 bit compat is missing
* The driver should use the .ioctl function and because
.locked_ioctl is going away.

The use of the big kernel lock remains for now, but gets
made explictit in the ioctl function.
