Thanks for Emil's suggestion. You are right, we need make sure structure size aligned on 8 bytes, which is important for 32bit-64bit compatible case.
While you're at it, please don't use enum as a type inside ioctls, since the size can vary by compiler. Please use a uint32_t or whatever instead, assigning enum values to that.

Afaict for compatibility reasons the struct size have to be "aligned"
(multiple of 8 bytes), or if you prefer - the struct is missing the required padding :) I've only skimmed through the patch so it may be that other structs are having this issue.
Cheers,
