This patche moves common COMPATIBLE_IOCTLs to include/linux/compat_ioctl.h, enabling pretty nice cleanups:
Please be careful. For anything non-trivial there can be major differences between compat layers. I say this now because eventually I want this compat stuff to support multiple-compilations, using some COMPAT_NAME(foo) macro scheme and some Makefile hackery.
This would allow, for example, x86_64 to have an x86_32 and x86_32_sysv compat layer in one build. So for example in this case fs/compat.c would be built twice, once with x86_32 compat types and once with x86_32_sysv types.
