Re: [PATCH v2] fuse: Fix IOC_[GS]ET{FLAGS,VERSION} argument size brokenness.

[Andreas Dilger]

To be honest, FS_IOC_SETVERSION isn't used by many/any users, so it might be better to avoid doing anything with that for now.

In the past we even talked about adding a deprecation warning for that ioctl since it adds complexity for little value. 

Cheers, Andreas
