although that is generally not necessary.  In particular it is not needed
for conversion of data structures and for calling sys_ioctl or
do_vfs_ioctl, which will get the BKL again if needed.

Handlers doing more than those two have been moved out, so we can kill off
the BKL from compat_sys_ioctl.  This may significantly improve latencies
with 32 bit applications, and it avoids a common scenario where a thread
acquires the BKL twice.
