5 * Partition table and disk geometry handling
7 * A single ioctl with lots of subfunctions:
10 * get_whole_disk() (given the device number of a partition,
11 * find the device number of the encompassing disk)
12 * get_all_partitions() (given the device number of a disk, return the
13 * device numbers of all its known partitions)
18 * test_partition_in_use() (also for test_disk_in_use)
23 * get_bios_drivedata()
25 * For today, only the partition stuff - aeb, 990515
