I of not think we can do this. Kernel with try to fetch 64 bits from
where userland put only 32. It probbaly works on little-endian
architectures by chance, but won't on big endian.

Does the version of the patch below work for you?

Thanks.

Input: serport - add compat handling for SPIOCSTYPE ioctl

From: John Sung <penmount.to...@gmail.com>

When running a 32-bit inputattach utility in a 64-bit system, there will be
error code "inputattach: can't set device type". This is caused by the
serport device driver not supporting compat_ioctl, so that SPIOCSTYPE ioctl
fails.
