You should remove these and use in 2.4 + . Also what stops multiple
simultaneous runs of init_ti_parallel if two people open it at once ?

That seems unfinished ??

O_NDELAY is set by fcntl - your driver never needs this.

SuS says -ENOTTY here (lots of drivers get this wrong still)

There is a generic no_llseek function

These don't appear to be officially assigned via lanana ?
