True, get_tiling ioctl has nothing on that level. I dont' know where was 
I. Had this ideas about multi-bank RAM with one bank single channel, 
another multi-channel and then swizzling differing between the two.

Okay, then question remains if you just want to drop the local struct 
and ioctl definition since AFAICS the same definitions are in the kernel 
since 2012.
