It is not possible to get 64-bit results from the passthru commands, what prevents from getting for the Capabilities (CAP) property value. As a result, it is not possible to implement IOL's NVMe Conformance test 4.3 Case 1 for Fabrics targets [1] (page 123). This issue has been already discussed [2], but without a solution. This patch solves the problem by adding new ioctls with a new passthru structure, including 64-bit results. The older ioctls stay unchanged.

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.
