Thank you Arnd. Here is the corrected patch. Tested on x68_64 + 32-bit
UBI tools.

Subject: [PATCH] UBI: add ioctl compatibility

UBI ioctl's do not work when running 64-bit kernel and 32-bit
user-land. Fix this by adding the compat_ioctl method.

Also, UBI serializes all ioctls, so more than one ioctl at a time,
and UBI does not seem to depend on anything else, so use
unlocked_ioctl instead of ioctl (no BKL needed).
