I've applied this series in bkl/ioctl, it passed allyesconfig in sparc.
I will apply the others from you and John tomorrow or so (and will enjoy
my part as well). J?rn, please queue this patch if you want to, as you prefer,
we can host it as well if necessary.

Linus I hope you don't mind but I've dropped the .bkl_ioctl renaming.
In fact it had conflicts with several trees in Linux-next and now that
we are about to pushdown in every ioctl users, this would be an
unnecessary step I think.

Thanks.
