FWIW - why?  For uses via ioctl() you simply won't get there with
device nodes et.al. - they have file_operations of their own.
If we add syscall(s) for getting/setting those, there's no reason
for e.g. a device node not to have those attributes...

unsigned int __user *argp, surely?

... and put_user() here.

Similar here.
