Bug#257265: [PATCH] partial 32bit translation for XFS

[Sébastien Bernard <sbernard@nerim.net>]

I agree this one should fix the problem I encounter. This seems a
neverending run to catch up with iotcl.
I would like to add that this kind of 32bits ioctl translation are not xfs
only.
I encounter several other (in ipv6/pppd for instance) when kernel is running.
I have no information about the location that cause the error to pop, only
some hint regarding the logs generated by the others programs.
Does right fix is correct 32bits translation for everyone or 64bit build
for all programs that request ioctl from the program ?
