fix rawctl compat ioctls breakage on amd64 and itanic
RAW_SETBIND and RAW_GETBIND 32bit versions are fscked in interesting ways. 1) fs/compat_ioctl.c has COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND) followed by HANDLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND, raw_ioctl). The latter is ignored. 2) on amd64 (and itanic) the damn thing is broken - we have int + u64 + u64 and layouts on i386 and amd64 are _not_ the same. raw_ioctl() would work there, but it's never called due to (1). As it is, i386 /sbin/raw definitely doesn't work on amd64 boxen. 3) switching to raw_ioctl() as is would *not* work on e.g. sparc64 and ppc64, which would be rather sad, seeing that normal userland there is 32bit. The thing is, slapping __packed on the struct in question does not DTRT - it eliminates *all* padding. The real solution is to use compat_u64. 4) of course, all that stuff has no business being outside of raw.c in the first place - there should be ->compat_ioctl() for /dev/rawctl instead of messing with compat_ioctl.c.
