Currently only the numbers 00...02 are in use; let's block a few more for unforeseen use cases. Cc: Randy Dunlap Cc: Kristian Høgsberg Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter --- As mentioned in patch 1/2, this is up for discussion. These ioctls have been used during nosy's out-of-tree life for several years; but due to the nature of this driver and its frontend as special-purpose application on special hardware, an incompatible change of these ioctls in the process of mainline merge won't be overly hurtful.
