This should be documented somewhere, and not buried in a changelog text
like this. Can you also add this information somewhere in the
Documentation/ directory so that people have a hint as to what is going
on here?

Also, any chance for a test to be added so that we can ensure that this
doesn't change over time in ways that confuse/break people?
Is this now a new user/kernel api format that we must preserve for
forever? Can we add/remove items over time that make sense or are
programs (not just people), going to parse this?

How often is this going to get out-of-sync? Should we use a real
enumerated type here? Put the string somewhere else to keep this only
in one place?

What is this protecting from? What is going to change that requires
this to be increased?

What are these two functions trying to do? A comment would be nice to
give us a hint as I am guessing I am going to have to maintain this for
forever :)

Why 200?

No need for this to be in include/linux/tty.h, put it in the .h file in
drivers/tty/ please.
