[PATCH v2] kni: fix ioctl signature

From: Markus Theil <markus.theil at secunet.com>
Fix kni's ioctl signature to correctly match the kernel's
structs. This shaves off the (void*) casts and uses struct file*
instead of struct inode*. With the correct signature, control flow
integrity checkers are no longer confused at this point.
