That's not compatible, at least not on any big-endian architecture.
If you want to have an indirect pointer, you have to cast it to the
__u64 member in user space and back in kernel space.

Using an array added to the end of the v4l2_fd_result structure
rather than a pointer would really make this easier IMHO.
