The do_video_ioctl() compat handler converts the compat command codes into the native ones before processing further, but this causes problems for 32-bit user applications that pass a command code that matches a 64-bit native number, which will then be handled the same way. Specifically, this breaks VIDIOC_DQEVENT_TIME from user space applications with 64-bit time_t, as the structure layout is the same as the native 64-bit layout on many architectures (x86 being the notable exception). Change the handler to use the converted command code only for passing into the native ioctl handler, not for deciding on the conversion, in order to make the compat behavior match the native behavior. Actual support for the 64-bit time_t version of VIDIOC_DQEVENT_TIME and other commands still needs to be added in a separate patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
