I'm resending this gzipped since my patch was 28k and the list max is 20k. Sorry about that!

This patch is just some silly stuff.  I've reordered the usage() output
so it is in alphabetic order by short option letter (I put the uppercase
before the lowercase when equal so they follow a get/set flow).  I
thought this would be a slight improvement, since there are a lot of
options.

I also thought it was confusing that some ioctls would report failure
before saying what they were doing, some would only output a message if
they failed, some would say what they were doing then report success or
failure, etc.  So I've also added a standard function for doing the
ioctl so the output to the user is the same (where possible).
For success, the output is: ioctl <FUNCTION> ok
For failure: ioctl <FUNCTION> failed: <ERROR>
Things that set a value are then followed by a: <READABLE NAME> set to
<VALUE>
Things that get a value are followed by: <READABLE NAME> = <VALUE>
[INTERPRETATION]

I can break these two apart if needed.
