My previous patch ended up causing a regression for the
DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_NVIF ioctl. The intention of my patch was to only
pass ioctl commands that have the correct dir/type/nr bits into the
nouveau_abi16_ioctl() function.
This turned out to be too strict, as userspace does use at least
write-only and write-read direction settings. Checking for both of these
still did not fix the issue, so the best we can do for the 6.16 release
is to revert back to what we've had since linux-3.16.
This version is still fragile, but at least it is known to work with
existing userspace. Fixing this properly requires a better understanding
of what commands are being passed from userspace in practice, and how
that relies on the undocumented (miss)behavior in nouveau_drm_ioctl().

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 reStructuredText 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.
