fiemap is handled in generic code and never enters ->whatever_ioctl.
Because of that there are only two ways to handle it:
(1) add it to the static translation table in fs/compat_ioctl.c
(2) add a special case to compat_sys_ioctl
Number one is the much simpler solution for a fully compatible ioctl.
