The 64-bit case looks broken here:

- The tread flag is different for compat and native mode, so you
   must pass a flag to identify whether you are called from
   __snd_timer_user_ioctl or from snd_timer_user_ioctl_compat().

- On x86, you have to check whether calling user space process uses
   the i386 or the x32 ABI by checking in_x32_syscall()
