Makes sense. Even though the whole SCSI_IOCTL_GET_IDLUN ioctl interface
is pretty pointless.
It supports only up to 255 different ids and luns and might return the
same 'dev_id' for two different devices...
Any user space utility that depends on this interface would do the wrong
thing (whatever that would be).
