Btw, for the main ioctl data (not the little reponse field) it might
make sense to use blk_rq_map_user, which will do a get_user_pages
on the user data if the alignment fits, and otherwise handle the
kernel bounce buffering for you.  This should simplify the code
quite a bit more, and in the case where you can access the user
memory directly provide a nice little performance boost.
