    SubjectBLKSSZGET change will break fdisk
    Hi,

    I noticed that behaviour of BLKSSZGET changed between 2.2 and 2.4. One of
    the users will be fdisk, as soon as it is compiled with 2.4 kernel
    headers, but then fdisk will be no longer usable under 2.2!
    My question now is, wouldn't it be better to use a new ioctl (like
    BLKHSSZGET) and keep the old behaviour of BLKSSZGET?

    bye, Roman
