    [PATCH] sanitize building of fs/compat_ioctl.c · e6a6d2ef

    Now that all these entries in the arch ioctl32.c files are gone [1], we can
    build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft.  We need a
    special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done.
    This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures.  Also remove some
    superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c
    
    Tested on ppc64.
    
    [1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct
        for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd
        kick in for all netdevice users.  We can introduce a proper handler
        in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to
        struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't
        compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this
        patchset.
