A way to avoid this is to use the aligned_u64 type from
linux/types.h which ensures 8-byte alignment on all
platforms and thus you won't need to provide s compat
ioctl() handler for your statistics ioctl().
Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware of aligned_u64.
I'll make this change for you so we don't have to go
back and forth again just for this.
Thanks!
