open counters on device nodes are fundamentally broken, because
they do not stop you from using dup() or sharing the file descriptor
across a fork. Just remove this.

Similarly, API versions are fundamentally flawed, as the kernel requires
us to keep compatibility with existing user space. Remove this as well.

Better do a memset() here to ensure this does not leak kernel
stack data to user space.

Add

.compat_ioctl = compat_ptr_ioctl

to make it work for 32-bit user space on 64-bit kernels.

I don't think it's necessary to make the user interface optional,
I'd just always provide these.

Remove the packed attribute, it does not change the structure layout but
just makes it less efficient to access on architectures that turn unaligned
loads and stores into byte accesses.

ioctl structures should generally not have pointers in them. If this can be done
one block at a time, you can have the 256 bytes as part of the structure.

This probably needs a redesign anyway based on Tomas' feedback though.

If you end up needing a pointer, use a __u64 member with
u64_to_user_ptr() as described in Documentation/driver-api/ioctl.rst

The last one should be _IOWR(), not _IOR(), since you write the metadata and
read the data.
