Dear Kirti:

When I rebased my vfio-ccw patches on this series, I found I need an
extra 'ioctl' callback in phy_device_ops.

The ccw physical device only supports one ccw mediated device. And I
have two new ioctl commands for the ccw mediated device. One is 
to hot-reset the resource in the physical device that allocated for
the mediated device, the other is to do an I/O instruction translation
and perform an I/O operation on the physical device. I found the
existing callbacks could not meet my requirements.

Something like the following would be fine for my case:
	int (*ioctl)(struct mdev_device *vdev,
		     unsigned int cmd,
		     unsigned long arg);

What do you think about this?
