Once we have fe_device field and the basic flags, would be relatively easy to propose new flags, but now, new flags should be discussed on a patch proposal I believe. Discussing which flags should/shouldn't be added here, will be pointless. Let me work on the patchset to update FIEMAP, and then we can discuss such thing there.
