yes.

Doesn't help.

on powerpc, SOLO_IOC_G_MOTION_THRESHOLDS expands to

(((2U) << (((0 +8)+8)+13)) | ((('V')) << (0 +8)) | (((192 +0)) << 0) | (((((sizeof(struct solo_motion_thresholds) == sizeof(struct solo_motion_thresholds[1]) && sizeof(struct solo_motion_thresholds) < (1 << 13)) ? sizeof(struct solo_motion_thresholds) : __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC))) << ((0 +8)+8)))

sizeof(struct solo_motion_thresholds) is 64*64*2 == 8192 which is not
less than 1 << 13
