I audited the vhost ioctl code when reviewing this patch and was
unable to find anything that would break for a 32-bit userspace
process.

drivers/vhost/net.c does the same thing already, which doesn't prove
it's correct but makes me more confident I didn't miss something while
auditing the vhost ioctl code.

Did you have a specific ioctl in mind?
