I've been sitting on a bug fix for a while that cleans up the eCryptfs ioctl code. eCryptfs doesn't need the BKL itself and can leave that decision up to the lower file sytem. The patch I have written should cover what you're trying to do here, too. I'll respond with the patch and if you think it looks good, I'll carry it in my tree and ask Linus to pull soon.
I reuse vfs_ioctl(), which must be exported, so I should get Al's ack.
