xen: Make struct privcmd_irqfd's layout architecture independent
[ Upstream commit 8dd765a5d769c521d73931850d1c8708fbc490cb ]
Using indirect pointers in an ioctl command argument means that the
layout is architecture specific, in particular we can't use the same one
from 32-bit compat tasks. The general recommendation is to have __u64
members and use u64_to_user_ptr() to access it from the kernel if we are
unable to avoid the pointers altogether.
