I thought we agreed to get rid of this as well? It certainly does not
belong here, and as a general rule, I don't think ioctls should be
doing capable tests..

This seems kind of goofy, didn't Ira say this is performance senstive?

Driver shouldn't be open coding __get_user like that, IMHO.

Have you audited this? Confused why this is marked IOW when I see
this:

+       case HFI1_IOCTL_RECV_CTRL:
+               ret = __get_user(uval, (int __user *)arg);

Seeing many other examples.

I stopped looking again
