From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> I spotted a minor difference is handling of unregistered devices between native and compat ioctls: the native handler never tries to call into the driver if a device is not marked as registered. I did not check whether this can cause issues in the kernel, or just a different between return codes, but it clearly makes sense that both should behave the same way.
