    net: Add compat ioctl support for the ipv4 multicast ioctl SIOCGETSGCNT · 709b46e8

    SIOCGETSGCNT is not a unique ioctl value as it it maps tio SIOCPROTOPRIVATE +1,
    which unfortunately means the existing infrastructure for compat networking
    ioctls is insufficient.  A trivial compact ioctl implementation would conflict
    with:
    
    SIOCAX25ADDUID
    SIOCAIPXPRISLT
    SIOCGETSGCNT_IN6
    SIOCGETSGCNT
    SIOCRSSCAUSE
    SIOCX25SSUBSCRIP
    SIOCX25SDTEFACILITIES
    
    To make this work I have updated the compat_ioctl decode path to mirror the
    the normal ioctl decode path.  I have added an ipv4 inet_compat_ioctl function
    so that I can have ipv4 specific compat ioctls.   I have added a compat_ioctl
    function into struct proto so I can break out ioctls by which kind of ip socket
    I am using.  I have added a compat_raw_ioctl function because SIOCGETSGCNT only
    works on raw sockets.  I have added a ipmr_compat_ioctl that mirrors the normal
    ipmr_ioctl.
    
    This was necessary because unfortunately the struct layout for the SIOCGETSGCNT
    has unsigned longs in it so changes between 32bit and 64bit kernels.
    
    This change was sufficient to run a 32bit ip multicast routing daemon on a
    64bit kernel.
