From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> The tulip driver has a debugging method over ioctl built-in, but it does not actually check the command type, which may end up leading to random behavior when trying to run other ioctls on it. Change the driver to use ndo_siocdevprivate and limit the execution further to the first private command code. If anyone still has tools to run these debugging commands, they might have to be patched for it if they pass different ioctl command. The function has existed in this form since the driver was merged in Linux-1.1.86.
