compat_ptr_ioctl() was added in upstream commit 2952db0fd51b
("compat_ioctl: add compat_ptr_ioctl()") and is now used by the cdc-wdm
driver.

+ * compat_ptr_ioctl - generic implementation of .compat_ioctl file operation
+ *
+ * This is not normally called as a function, but instead set in struct
+ * file_operations as
+ *
+ * .compat_ioctl = compat_ptr_ioctl,
+ *
+ * On most architectures, the compat_ptr_ioctl() just passes all arguments
+ * to the corresponding ->ioctl handler. The exception is arch/s390, where
+ * compat_ptr() clears the top bit of a 32-bit pointer value, so user space
+ * pointers to the second 2GB alias the first 2GB, as is the case for
+ * native 32-bit s390 user space.
+ *
+ * The compat_ptr_ioctl() function must therefore be used only with ioctl
+ * functions that either ignore the argument or pass a pointer to a
+ * compatible data type.
+ *
+ * If any ioctl command handled by fops->unlocked_ioctl passes a plain
+ * integer instead of a pointer, or any of the passed data types
+ * is incompatible between 32-bit and 64-bit architectures, a proper
+ * handler is required instead of compat_ptr_ioctl.
