   5  * Partition table and disk geometry handling

   7  * A single ioctl with lots of subfunctions:
   8  *
   9  * Device number stuff:
  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)
  14  *
  15  * Partition stuff:
  16  *    add_partition()
  17  *    delete_partition()
  18  *    test_partition_in_use()   (also for test_disk_in_use)
  19  *
  20  * Geometry stuff:
  21  *    get_geometry()
  22  *    set_geometry()
  23  *    get_bios_drivedata()
  24  *
  25  * For today, only the partition stuff - aeb, 990515
