Subject: [PATCH 16/35] KVM: Enable 32bit dirty log pointers on 64bit host

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>

With big endian userspace, we can't quite figure out if a pointer
is 32 bit (shifted >> 32) or 64 bit when we read a 64 bit pointer.

This is what happens with dirty logging. To get the pointer interpreted
correctly, we thus need Arnd's patch to implement a compat layer for
the ioctl:

A better way to do this is to add a separate compat_ioctl() method that
converts this for you.

Based on initial patch from Arnd Bergmann.
