[alsa-devel] [PATCH v3] ALSA: compress: add support for 32bit calls in a 64bit kernel

[Ravindra Lokhande]

Compress offload does not support ioctl calls from a 32bit userspace
in a 64 bit kernel. This patch adds support for ioctls from a 32bit
userspace in a 64bit kernel

Signed-off-by: Ravindra Lokhande <rlokhande at nvidia.com>

v1 -> v2: use compat_ptr to convert 32 bit address to 64 bit pointer
v2 -> v3: add header file compat.h
