It seems simpler to me. We need to change this anyway. ioctls with a variable argument length are a pain for 32 bit emulation and stuff like strace. You either need to encode the variable length into the ioctl cmd, making it variable as well, or use a pointer in the data structure, which requires conversion. Ideally, ioctl arguments have a constant layout, no pointers and are at most 64 bits long.
