Subject: [GIT PULL] Bkl ioctl removal for 2.6.36

Linus,

Please pull the bkl/ioctl branch that can be found at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/random-tracing.git
	bkl/ioctl

This removes struct file_operations:ioctl() as there are no more users
of it.

That branch is based on a very recent version of your tree and not
2.6.35 because I needed every pending pushdowns to be upstream before
applying the final removal (and test it with allyesconfig).

Thanks,
	Frederic
