rt73usb: support for wireless in Kohjinsha subnotebook

Many drivers use only compatible ioctl numbers. In order to avoid having to write a special compat_ioctl handler for each of them or listing every ioctl number in fs/compat_ioctl.c, let's introduce a generic handler that simply calls the driver specific f_op->unlocked_ioctl() or f_op->ioctl()
