__u8?

Why do these need to be in a uapi .h file? Shouldn't they just be part
of the normal MODULE_FIRMWARE() macro in the driver itself?

Horrible padding issues, are you sure this all works properly?

Are you _SURE_ you want a pointer here? How do you handle the compat
issues with 32/64 user/kernel space?

And isn't this just a normal PCI write thing? Can't you do it from
userspace using the existing userspace PCI accesses? Why do you need a
special ioctl for it?

Do not use bitfields in ioctls, they will not work properly on all
systems. Use masks and shifts instead.

I do not think that BIT() is exported to userspace properly, is it
really ok here?

What are all of these #defines doing in an uapi file? How is userspace
going to use them?
