From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
Going through compat_alloc_user_space() to convert indirect system call
arguments tends to add complexity compared to handling the native and
compat logic in the same code.
Out of the other remaining callers, the linux-media series went into
v5.14, and the network ioctl handling is now fixed in net-next, so
these are the last remaining users, and I now include the final
patch to remove the definitions as well.
Since these patches are now all that remains, it would be nice to
merge it all through Andrew's Linux-mm tree, which is already based
on top of linux-next.
