The unfortunate thing is that its min and max as opposed to typed_min and
typed_max (with min/max set up to error), since its now a nightmare to
maintain compatibility between two allegedly stable releases of the same
kernel, as well as with 2.2
Had it been typed_min(a,b,c) then 2.2 could have stayed compatible and the
glue would have been simple
