you are not seeing the point of it it seems
Documentation/ioctl-number.txt
----
If you are adding new ioctl's to the kernel, you should use the _IO
macros defined in <linux/ioctl.h>:
_IO an ioctl with no parameters
_IOW an ioctl with write parameters (copy_from_user)
_IOR an ioctl with read parameters (copy_to_user)
_IOWR an ioctl with both write and read parameters.
----
copy from user is required in order to copy the keys for the requested
elements into the kernel.
copy to user is finally used to play them back.
