This initialization appears to be unneeded.

Who uses the copied values?

We should do the preferred sizeof(*up) here...

Why not properly define the number using IOC() et al.? K (that 0x4b) is 
even reserved for kd.h.

_BITUL()

This does not look like a well-defined™ and extendable uapi structure. 
While it won't change anything here, still use fixed-length __u32.

And you should perhaps add some reserved fields. Do not repeat the same 
mistakes as your predecessors with the current kd uapi.
