eCryptfs: Handle ioctl calls with unlocked and compat functions

Lower filesystems that only implemented unlocked_ioctl weren't being
passed ioctl calls because eCryptfs only checked for
lower_file->f_op->ioctl and returned -ENOTTY if it was NULL.

eCryptfs shouldn't implement ioctl(), since it doesn't require the BKL.
This patch introduces ecryptfs_unlocked_ioctl() and
ecryptfs_compat_ioctl(), which passes the calls on to the lower file
system.
