[lttng-dev] put_ulong calls in lib_ring_buffer_compat_ioctl() should be compat?

I was noticing the that some of the put_ulong calls in 
lib_ring_buffer_compat_ioctl() were not compat_put_ulong.  I can't 
imagine this is correct.  Here's a patch to fix it, assuming that is 
wrong.  It seems to work ok.
