+ * size of the parameter structure in the lower 14 bits of the
+ * upper 16 bits.
+ * Encoding the size of the parameter structure in the ioctl request
+ * is useful for catching programs compiled with old versions
+ * and to avoid overwriting user space outside the user buffer area.
+ * The highest 2 bits are reserved for indicating the ``access mode''.
+ * NOTE: This limits the max parameter size to 16kB -1 !

+ * The following is for compatibility across the various Linux

+ * a type field.  De facto, however, the top 8 bits of the lower 16
+ * bits are indeed used as a type field, so we might just as well make
+ * this explicit here.  Please be sure to use the decoding macros
+ * below from now on.
