[PATCH] Generic ioctl.h
Most arches copied the i386 ioctl.h. Combine them into a generic header. Signed-off-by: Brian Gerst <bgerst@didntduck.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

4/* ioctl command encoding: 32 bits total, command in lower 16 bits,
5 * size of the parameter structure in the lower 14 bits of the
6 * upper 16 bits.
7 * Encoding the size of the parameter structure in the ioctl request
8 * is useful for catching programs compiled with old versions
9 * and to avoid overwriting user space outside the user buffer area.
10 * The highest 2 bits are reserved for indicating the ``access mode''.
11 * NOTE: This limits the max parameter size to 16kB -1 !

14/*
15 * The following is for compatibility across the various Linux
16 * platforms. The generic ioctl numbering scheme doesn't really enforce
17 * a type field. De facto, however, the top 8 bits of the lower 16
18 * bits are indeed used as a type field, so we might just as well make
19 * this explicit here. Please be sure to use the decoding macros
20 * below from now on.
