[PATCH RESEND] nsfs: add compat ioctl handler

From: Thomas Weißschuh
Date: Wed Jan 11 2023 - 11:43:48 EST


As all parameters and return values of the ioctls have the same
representation on both 32bit and 64bit we can reuse the normal ioctl
handler for the compat handler.

All nsfs ioctls return a plain "int" filedescriptor which is a signed
4-byte integer type on both 32bit and 64bit.
The only parameter taken is by NS_GET_OWNER_UID and is a pointer to a
"uid_t" which is a 4-byte unsigned integer type on both 32bit and 64bit.
