Also, ew.  Why on earth do we do 'de->flags[-sbi->s_high_sierra]'?
I'm surprised we don't have any tools that warn about references outside
an array.  I would do this as ...

static inline u8 de_flags(struct isofs_sb_info *sbi,
		struct iso_directory_record *de)
{
	if (sbi->s_high_sierra)
		return de->date[6];
	return de->flags;
}
