Nick Bowler 1cc7f4c628 xfs: Fix bulkstat compat ioctls on x32 userspace.
[ Upstream commit 7ca860e3c1a74ad6bd8949364073ef1044cad758 ]

The bulkstat family of ioctls are problematic on x32, because there is
a mixup of native 32-bit and 64-bit conventions.  The xfs_fsop_bulkreq
struct contains pointers and 32-bit integers so that matches the native
32-bit layout, and that means the ioctl implementation goes into the
regular compat path on x32.

However, the 'ubuffer' member of that struct in turn refers to either
struct xfs_inogrp or xfs_bstat (or an array of these).  On x32, those
structures match the native 64-bit layout.  The compat implementation
writes out the 32-bit version of these structures.  This is not the
expected format for x32 userspace, causing problems.

Fortunately the functions which actually output these xfs_inogrp and
xfs_bstat structures have an easy way to select which output format
is required, so we just need a little tweak to select the right format
on x32.

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
