There's a substantial amount of boilerplate in filesystems handling
FS_IOC_[GS]ETFLAGS/ FS_IOC_FS[GS]ETXATTR ioctls.
Also due to userspace buffers being involved in the ioctl API this is
difficult to stack, as shown by overlayfs issues related to these ioctls.
Introduce a new internal API named "fileattr" (fsxattr can be confused with
xattr, xflags is inappropriate, since this is more than just flags).
There's significant overlap between flags and xflags and this API handles
the conversions automatically, so filesystems may choose which one to use.
In ->fileattr_get() a hint is provided to the filesystem whether flags or
xattr are being requested by userspace, but in this series this hint is
ignored by all filesystems, since generating all the attributes is cheap.
If a filesystem doesn't implemement the fileattr API, just fall back to
f_op->ioctl(). When all filesystems are converted, the fallback can be
removed.
32bit compat ioctls are now handled by the generic code as well.

FWIW - why? For uses via ioctl() you simply won't get there with
device nodes et.al. - they have file_operations of their own.
If we add syscall(s) for getting/setting those, there's no reason
for e.g. a device node not to have those attributes...

Yes it will: this is called by the vfs, not the filesystem.

Fair enough, but I guess filesystems will need to explicitly enable
support for these attributes on special files.
We can move that check inside filesystems now, or we can move it
later, when actually needed. Which do you prefer? (only a couple of
filesystems are affected, IIRC, which don't have separate i_ops for
regular and special files).
Thanks,
Miklos
