Subject: [PATCH 4/5] char driver: inappropriate ioctl operation should return ENOTTY
ioctl() calls against a character special file with an inappropriate
ioctl operation are incorrectly returning EINVAL rather than ENOTTY:
[ENOTTY]
Inappropriate I/O control operation.
These drivers do not seem to be actively maintained from my brief
investigation. Apologies to the maintainers that I have missed.
