Hmm, shouldn't this always be set by stat?  But I might just be
really confused what attributes_mask is, and might in fact have
misapplied it in past patches of my own..

Also shouldn't the patches to report the flag go into the bdev/ext4
patches that actually implement the feature for the respective files
to keep bisectability?
