So will an inline like this work?

static inline void *__user convert_user_ptr(uint64_t ioctl_ptr)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
        if (is_compat_task())
                return compat_ptr((compat_uptr_t)ioctl_ptr);
        else
#endif
                return (void __user *)(unsigned long)ioctl_ptr;
}

then I can convert all the code to just use that instead of explicity 
casts or brokenness.

Dave.
