This is completely busted. It "passes" by luck, not because it's a valid test. The size of the argument is embedded in the IOCTL number itself, which means that unless glibc is being very nice and using a macro + typeof + sizeof to sanity check things, which I highly doubt is the case, this ioctl() is passing random stack data, a.k.a. garbage, to KVM.
In short, drop this patch.
Thank you for letting us know about the issues with the patch. I will drop the patch as suggested. Would you advise me to prepare version 3 to remove this patch?
More comments on the other patches are incoming, please hold off on v3 until then.
