            Unused.

            Unused.

Comments
        Drivers can be structured in several ways. The simplest and
        most common drivers will use one physical device to support one
        logical device. Drivers can also support multiple logical
        devices using a single physical device. For example, it can
        use a single DSP to support playback of both PCM and ADPCM data.
         Such a driver would return a value of 2 for this message.
