32-bit compat ioctl for inotify

I’ve just installed the file alteration monitor Gamin. Its inotify support didn’t work because inotify didn’t provide the required compat ioctl(2) for my mixed 32/64-bit system.
Here’s a patch that adds the missing ioctl(2) to 2.6.11-mm2:
inotify-compat-2.6.11-mm2.patch
