* However, the ioctl syscall highjacks several low values at do_vfs_ioctl, e.g.
* This "forces" use to use the _IOx macros...
* https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10071296/ioctl-is-not-called-if-cmd-2
*
* Some of those magic low values are used for fnctl, which can also be used on regular files:
* e.g. FIOCLEX for close-on-exec:

* TODO are the W or R of _IOx and type functional, or only to help with uniqueness?
