Also I'm uncomfortable with:

	data = container_of(hdr, struct libcfs_ioctl_data, ioc_hdr);

If hdr isn't the first member of the struct then the code is broken but
container_of() implies that that isn't a hard requirement.  It should
just be:

	data = (struct libcfs_ioctl_data *)hdr;

Don't know if hdr being first is a hard requirment. Doug, Amir do you know
if it is an requirement?

It's a requirement.
