Why create new ioctl macros, can't the "normal" kernel macros work
properly?

<snip>

These structures do not seem to be all using the correct types for a
"real" ioctl in the kernel, so you will have to fix them all up before
this will work properly.

Very odd global name you are using here :)

Anyway, neat stuff, glad to see it posted, great work!
