The real problem is an > artificial one: the i_flags in f2fs's on-disk format are being assumed to use Yeah, but since most copied flags from vfs/ext4 are not actually used in f2fs, also 0x00100000 bit is not used now, so we can just define it now directly for verity bit. Cleanup and remapping in ioctl interface for those unused flags, we can do it latter?
