Agree, tools can be updated and that is the easy part as we grow the s/w

can be done without Gunyah ioctls relying anything on the KVM ioctls.
Elliot has also explained very well that we don't to go to KVM
maintainers for any of our additions and we also don't want them to come
to us, since there is no interoperability testing. It is best that both
Hypervisors and their Linux interfaces evolve independently.
Are above explanations reasonable to not re-use KVM ioctl numbers?
Try getting close at least, where possible please. As your ioctl
numbers didn't even start at 0, it's a bit odd...
Ack, will do.
Thanks,
