The user-space code includes "sys/ioctl.h" for calling into ioctl(). "sys/ioctl.h"
includes <linux/ioctl.h>, so it has no problem finding _IOWR.

guid_t is defined in <uapi/linux/uuid.h>, included from <linux/uuid.h> (in this file)
__u32 and __aligned_u64 are defined in <uapi/linux/types.>, which is included from <linux/kernel.h> (in this file)
