A number of years ago when someone (read: Laurent) added a new IOCTL to
the MC interface, I wanted IOCTL handling to be refactored. That wasn't
done however, so here are patches to do just that: there are too many
IOCTLs that copy the argument struct from the user and back.

The changes will also make the request API patches a little bit cleaner as
the argument copying is removed there. I'll post an RFC set on those in
the near future.

Kind regards,
Sakari
