Sooo, fun fact about ext4 vs. the world--

The GETFLAGS/SETFLAGS ioctl, since it came from ext2, shares the same
flag values as the ondisk inode flags in ext*.  Therefore, each of these
EXT4_[whatever]_FL values are supposed to have a FS_[whatever]_FL
equivalent in include/uapi/linux/fs.h.

(Note that the "[whatever]" is a straight translation since the same
uapi header also defines the FS_XFLAG_[xfswhatever] flag values; ignore
those.)

Evidently, FS_NOCOW_FL already took 0x800000, but ext4.h was never
updated to note that the value was taken.  I think Ted might be inclined
to reserve the ondisk inode bit just in case ext4 ever does support copy
on write, though that's his call. :)

Long story short - can you use 0x1000000 for this instead, and add the
corresponding value to the uapi fs.h?  I guess that also means that we
can change FS_XFLAG_DAX (in the form of FS_DAX_FL in FSSETFLAGS) after
that.
