Harshal Chaudhari c78c95f919 misc: xilinx-sdfec: remove check for ioctl cmd and argument.
if (_IOC_TYPE(cmd) != PP_IOCTL)
        return -ENOTTY;

Invalid ioctl command check normally performs by “default” case.

if (_IOC_DIR(cmd) != _IOC_NONE) {
       argp = (void __user *)arg;
       if (!argp)
             return -EINVAL; }

And for checking ioctl arguments, copy_from_user()/copy_to_user()
checks are enough.

README

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.
