[PATCH] mtd: provide proper 32/64-bit compat_ioctl() support for BLKPG

[Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com>]

After a bit of poking around wondering why my 32-bit user-space can't
seem to send a proper ioctl(BLKPG) to an MTD on my 64-bit kernel
(ARM64), I noticed that struct blkpg_ioctl_arg is actually pretty
unsuitable for use in the ioctl() ABI, due to its use of raw pointers,
and its lack of alignment/packing restrictions (32-bit arch'es tend to
pack the 4 fields into 4 32-bit words, whereas 64-bit arch'es would add
padding after the third int, and make this 6 32-bit words).

Anyway, this means BLKPG deserves some special compat_ioctl handling. Do
the conversion in a small shim for MTD.

block/compat_ioctl.c already has compat support for the block subsystem,
but it does so by a re-marshalling data to/from user-space (see
compat_blkpg_ioctl()). Personally, I think this approach is cleaner.

Tested only on MTD, with an ARM32 user space on an ARM64 kernel.

You can find the initial bug report / patch here:

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/2028927
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/8/28/594

Changes since RFC:
 * create new non-UAPI header, instead of cluttering the UAPI header with
   compat stuff
 * remove mention of "same bug in block/", since block/ solves this problem
   already, just in a slightly different way
