This change breaks user space so this change is not acceptable. I think you
want to introduce a new ioctl instead of modifying an existing ioctl.
Additionally, have you considered to split the blktrace_api.h header file
into two header files: one with kernel-internal definitions and a second one
with definitions that are shared with user space (include/uapi/...)?

Thanks,

Bart.
