Actually is there any chance you could just provide ->compat_ioctl handlers
in the drivers?  All these ioctls are specific to drivers, and it sounds like
a rather bad idea to pollute the global has table with them.  This is also
a good chance to switch the drivers to drop BKL usage in the ioctl path and
use the same handler for ->unlocked_ioctl and ->compat_ioctl.

I just checked and found that block_device_operations don't support
unlocked_ioctl() yet. I have hacked up a patch to add that without
changing the semantics of blkdev_ioctl(). I have not done thorough
testing, but my system is running fine with this applied.
Does it look ok to you?

[PATCH] block: add unlocked_ioctl support for block devices

This patch allows block device drivers to convert their ioctl functions
to unlocked_ioctl() like character devices and other subsystems.
All functions that were called with the BKL held before are still
used that way, but I would not be surprised if it could be removed
from the ioctl functions in drivers/block/ioctl.c themselves.

As a side note, I found that compat_blkdev_ioctl() acquires the BKL
as well, which looks like a bug. I have checked that every user
of disk->fops->compat_ioctl() in the current git tree gets the BKL
itself, so it could easily be removed from compat_blkdev_ioctl().
