em8300 Kbuild fix for compat_ioctl

Hi all,
Starting with kernel 3.1 I have a problem with em8300_ioctl32 not being 
compiled into my em8300 kernel module.
The system is 32-bit debian with an amd64 kernel.
The kernel headers come from the debian package. The em8300 module is 
compiled from source.

Looking into the problem I found ARCH to be "x86"! I have no idea why 
this is so but I suspect that depending on CONFIG_COMPAT is the better 
approch any way.

So feel free to apply attached patch to the em8300 repository.

Regards,
Uli
