Subject: [git pull] vfs.git, part 1 - compat_ioctl fixes

	This is basically Jann's patches from last week.  I have _not_
included the stuff like switching i2c to ->compat_ioctl() into this one -
those need more testing.  Ideally I would like fs/compat_ioctl.c shrunk
a lot, but that's a separate story.  Please, pull from

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git for-linus

Shortlog:
Al Viro (1):
      compat_ioctl: don't pass fd around when not needed

Jann Horn (2):
      compat_ioctl: don't look up the fd twice
      compat_ioctl: don't call do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS)
