From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
So-called \So"-called`\, a.
So named; called by such a name (but perhaps called thus with
doubtful propriety).
From WordNet (r) 2.0 [wn]:
so-called
adj : doubtful or suspect; "these so-called experts are no help"
[syn: {alleged(a)}, {supposed}]
My strong conviction is that widespread use of 'so gennant'
or 'sogennant' in German has led to the creeping misuse of
'so-called' in English (especially through technical writings).
In English, it would be better to use:
what is called
or a better translation of 'so gennant':
so named

Currently, -EINVAL is used to return either when an IOCTL is not
implemented, or if the ioctl was not implemented.

Move generic stuff into gen-errors.xml, and remove them from
DVB API. While here, removes two bogus error codes that aren't
supported or used on Linux: EINTERNAL and ENOSIGNAL.

Remove generic errors from ioctl() descriptions. For other ioctl's,
there's no generic section. So, just keep whatever is there.

there's no generic section. So, just keep whatever is there.
Also remove the EINTERNAL error code, as no DVB driver returns
it, and this error code is not defined on POSIX or on Linux.

Just like the V4L, MC and LIRC API's, point to the generic error
chapter for ioctl's. This will allow moving generic error codes
to just one place inside all media API's.
A latter patch will remove the generic errors from each specific
ioctl.
