As reported by Soohoon Lee, the HDIO_GET_32BIT ioctl does not work correctly in compat mode with libata. I have investigated the issue further and found multiple problems that all appeared with the same commit that originally introduced HDIO_GET_32BIT handling in libata back in linux-2.6.8 and presumably also linux-2.4, as the code uses "copy_to_user(arg, &val, 1)" to copy a 'long' variable containing either 0 or 1 to user space.
Applied to libata/for-4.5-fixes. Thanks a lot! -- tejun
