We do not have pointers in the uabi because they are different sizes on
different platforms. The uabi must be a u64 representation of a user
address to store the result - that is what we pass to the crtc set
property ioctl. That it has been futher managled not to pass around fd
is an interesting twist, but ideally that sillyness should not make
itself into our API.
