Question:  the Linux Telephony API heavily uses ioctls to control
the low level telephone behavior via the driver.  Existing
drivers for PCI/ISA/PCMCIA all use this interface.

I am working on a USB driver that links to the phone subsystem
(by registering via phonedev.o) and uses minor numbers from there
(major number 100).

Are you guys gonna freak and hate my driver because it uses
ioctls?
