Yes, that works, since all of the ioctls listed above are in the range
where the _IOC_TYPE() check would succeed. It now also makes sense to
move the check inline into the header. I've done all of that in v2.

FWIW, it doesn't look like any of them have the _IOC_SIZE() bits set,
so that won't work. _IOC_TYPE() seems better anyway.
