KVM: Enable 32bit dirty log pointers on 64bit host
With big endian userspace, we can't quite figure out if a pointer is 32 bit (shifted >> 32) or 64 bit when we read a 64 bit pointer. This is what happens with dirty logging. To get the pointer interpreted correctly, we thus need Arnd's patch to implement a compat layer for the ioctl: A better way to do this is to add a separate compat_ioctl() method that converts this for you. Based on initial patch from Arnd Bergmann.
