I did a little further digging, and the interrupt list now reads:

INT 21 - DOS 3.1+ - IOCTL - CHECK IF BLOCK DEVICE REMOTE
	AX = 4409h
	BL = drive number (00h = default, 01h = A:, etc)
Return: CF clear if successful
	    DX = device attribute word
		bit 15: drive is SUBSTituted
		bit 12: drive is remote
		bit  9: direct I/O not allowed
	CF set on error
	    AX = error code (01h,0Fh) (see AH=59h)
Note:	on local drives, DX bits not listed above are the attribute word from
	  the device driver header (see AH=52h); for remote drives, the other
	  bits appear to be undefined
SeeAlso: AX=4400h,AX=4408h,AX=440Ah,INT 2F/AX=122Bh
