Bug #9260
nsmb driver 32-bit ioctl check broken after 8685
100%
Description
The nsmb driver uses ioctl data structures that have been carefully designed to to have layouts that are invariant between 32-bit and 64-bit user-level callers.
This avoids any need for the in-kernel copyin/copyout code in nsmb to deal with converting 32-bit ioctl structures to 64-bit (in-kernel) versions.
There is some build-time machinery to verify that ioctl structure layout invariance. See:
http://src.illumos.org/source/xref/illumos-gate/usr/src/uts/intel/nsmb/Makefile
http://src.illumos.org/source/xref/illumos-gate/usr/src/uts/intel/nsmb/ioc_check.ref
http://src.illumos.org/source/xref/illumos-gate/usr/src/uts/common/fs/smbclnt/netsmb/offsets.in
Now that we only build kernel components 64-bit, that Makefile needs work
so it can create the 32-bit ioc_check.h and compare it with the reference.
Probably can (mostly) copy usr/src/uts/sparc/nsmb/Makefile
which already deals with this situation.

Notes about the fix:
Revert changes in usr/src/uts/Makefile.\{targ,uts\}
Let uts/intel/Makefile.intel define \{ALL,DEF\}\_BUILDS for 32-bit only,
Also the platform makefiles: uts/i86pc/Makefile.\* etc.
(Similar to how sparc handled that.)
Add logic to intel/nsmb/Makefile like sparc had to run just the
necessary part of the 32-bit build for the ioctl check.
