Not sure yet how we are going to fix it.  You can either just revert or
you could run this patch which I am using on my box.  Not sure which Al
is going to want to do......

commit 6e066d6c0c70e2032b5fd2b5c6375e66a0f547f9
Author: Eric Paris <eparis@xxxxxxxxxx>

    anon_inode/ioctl: push FIONREAD for anon_inode to the file handler
    
    FIONREAD for all S_IFREG files is handled by file_ioctl but the
    anon_inode_inode is a magic special beast since the inode is shared between
    lots of users.  Thus ioctl calls on anon_inode_inode needs to go through
    vfs_inode() instead of trying to shortcut some calls through file_ioctl().
