Please version the struct by size as we do for clone3(), mount_setattr(), listmount()'s struct mnt_id_req, sched_setattr(), all the new xattrat*() system calls and a host of others. So laying out the struct 64bit and passing a size alongside it. This is all handled by copy_struct_from_user() and copy_struct_to_user() so nothing to reinvent. And it's easy to copy from existing system calls.
