I'm sorry but I really hate this again...  :/

This doesn't simplify anything at all...  It just hides the parameters
and makes things more complicated on the caller and the implementor.

Also "args" is now a void pointer which makes me very sad.  :(

I don't really like this either...  We should be getting rid of these
custom error codes not formalizing them.  :(

I don't see the point of any of this debugging.  Just leave it out.  Use
ftrace.

Finally, we have reached he meat of this patch.  Please, pull this
bit out in patch #1 like I asked.  Then in the next patch implement
the compat ioctl.

I don't like the cpyret function pointers either...

This stuff should really be very simple.  I feel like you're engineering
it to be way harder than it needs to be.  I'm sorry.  :(
