btrfs: add FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctl
The new ioctl is an extension to the FS_IOC_SETFLAGS and adds new flags and is extensible. Don't get fooled by the XATTR in the name, it does not have anything in common with the extended attributes, incidentally also abbreviated as XATTRs. This patch allows to set the xflags portion of the fsxattr structure, other items have no meaning and non-zero values will result in EOPNOTSUPP. Currently supported xflags: - APPEND - IMMUTABLE - NOATIME - NODUMP - SYNC The structure of btrfs_ioctl_fssetxattr copies btrfs_ioctl_setflags but is simpler on the flag setting side. The original patch was written by Chandan Jay Sharma but was incomplete and no further revision has been sent.
