These structures have implied padding. Better make it explicit by
adding the appropriate __u32 __pad1 members or similar.

As discussed before, this one should really be using the _IOC macros to define
the commands that you use based on the structure definitions above, e.g.

#define FSL_HV_IOCTL_GETPROP _IORW(FSL_HV, 8, struct fsl_hv_ioctl_prop)

Then get rid of all the code that takes apart the ioctl command numbers
again and just do a switch/case based on the command.
