Although we use u64 to pass userspace pointers to the kernel to avoid compat_ioctl, it doesn't work in some ppc platform. So wrap them with compat_ptr and add compat_ioctl. The detailed discussion about compat_ptr can be found in thread http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/27/423. We indeed met with a bug when testing on ppc(-EFAULT is returned when using old_path). This patch try to fix this. I have tested in ppc64(with 32 bit reflink) and x86_64(with i686 reflink), both works.
