Huh?  Instead of
        case PPPIOCSCOMPRESS:
                err = ppp_set_compress(ppp, arg);
                break;
in native, have
	struct ppp_option_data data;
...
        case PPPIOCSCOMPRESS:
		if (copy_from_user(&data, argp, sizeof(data)))
			err = -EFAULT;
		else
			err = ppp_set_compress(ppp, &data);
                break;

while in compat do
	struct ppp_option_data32 data32;

        case PPPIOCSCOMPRESS32:
		if (copy_from_user(&data32, argp, sizeof(data32)))
			err = -EFAULT;
		else
			err = ppp_set_compress(ppp, &(struct ppp_option_data){
							.ptr = compat_ptr(data32.ptr),
							.length = data32.length,
							.transmit = data32.transmit
						});
		break;

PPPIOCGIDLE is small to start with - not a lot to copy there.
And as for the filters...  What you need is something like

struct bpf_prog *get_ppp_bpf(struct sock_fprog __user *p)
{
        struct sock_fprog uprog;
	struct sock_fprog_kern fprog;
	struct sock_filter *code = NULL;
	struct bpf_prog *res;
        int err;

        if (copy_from_user(&uprog, p, sizeof(uprog)))
                return ERR_PTR(-EFAULT);

        if (!uprog.len)
                return NULL;

        fprog.len = uprog.len * sizeof(struct sock_filter);
        code = fprog.filter = memdup_user(uprog.filter, fprog.len);
        if (IS_ERR(code))
                return ERR_CAST(code);

	err = bpf_prog_create(&res, &fprog);
	kfree(code);

	if (err)
		return ERR_PTR(err);
	return res;
}
in net/core/ppp-filter.c (or in net/core/filter.c, for that matter, under
appropriate ifdef)) with obvious compat counterpart next to it.  Hell,
turn the above into

static struct bpf_prog *__get_ppp_bpf(struct sock_fprog *kp)
{
	struct sock_fprog_kern fprog;
	struct sock_filter *code = NULL;
	struct bpf_prog *res;
        int err;

        if (!kp->len)
                return NULL;

        fprog.len = kp->len * sizeof(struct sock_filter);
        code = fprog.filter = memdup_user(kp->filter, fprog.len);
        if (IS_ERR(code))
                return ERR_CAST(code);

	err = bpf_prog_create(&res, &fprog);
	kfree(code);

	if (err)
		return ERR_PTR(err);
	return res;
}

struct bpf_prog *get_ppp_bpf(struct sock_fprog __user *p)
{
        struct sock_fprog uprog;

        if (copy_from_user(&uprog, p, sizeof(uprog)))
                return ERR_PTR(-EFAULT);
	return __get_ppp_bpf(&uprog);
}

struct bpf_prog *compat_get_ppp_bpf(struct sock_fprog32 __user *p)
{
        struct sock_fprog uprog32;

        if (copy_from_user(&uprog32, p, sizeof(uprog32)))
                return ERR_PTR(-EFAULT);
	return __get_ppp_bpf(&(struct sock_fprog){
			.len = uprog32.len,
			.filter = compat_ptr(uprog32.filter)});
}

Then in native ioctl do
        case PPPIOCSPASS:
        case PPPIOCSACTIVE:
        {
                struct bpf_prog *filter = get_bpf_ppp(argp);

		if (IS_ERR(filter)) {
			err = PTR_ERR(filter);
		} else {
			struct bpf_prog **which;
			if (cmd == PPPIOCSPASS)
				which = &ppp->pass_filter;
			else
				which = &ppp->active_filter;
			ppp_lock(ppp);
			if (*which)
				bpf_prog_destroy(*which);
			*which = filter;
			ppp_unlock(ppp);
			err = 0;
		}
                break;
	}
in native and similar in compat, with get_bpf_ppp() replaced
with call of compat_get_bpf_ppp() and ioctl numbers obviously
adjusted.  All there is to it...  Helpers obviously shared
with isdn and yes, all crap gone from fs/compat_ioctl.c...

Why would you want to duplicate large chunks of anything?
The above is not even compile-tested, but...  I can put
together a patch if you wish.  Or am I missing something
here?
