5 * The original linux ioctl numbering scheme was just a general
6 * "anything goes" setup, where more or less random numbers were
7 * assigned. Sorry, I was clueless when I started out on this.
9 * On the alpha, we'll try to clean it up a bit, using a more sane
10 * ioctl numbering, and also trying to be compatible with OSF/1 in
11 * the process. I'd like to clean it up for the i386 as well, but
12 * it's so painful recognizing both the new and the old numbers..

32 * And this turns out useful to catch old ioctl numbers in header
