It sounds unwise to let user space pass an unchecked 32-bit offset into a kernel structure in an ioctl. This is an unsigned variable, so checking the upper bound for the size of the structure it points into is sufficient to avoid data corruption, but as the pointer might also be unaligned, it has to be written carefully as well.
While I stumbled over this problem by reading the code, I did not continue checking the function for further problems like it.

Add a line break to avoid the overly long line - also the braces around the arithmetics aren't actually needed.
