Do realise that your problem cannot be solved through fsopen() until every
filesystem is converted to the new fs_context-based sget() since the flag has
to make it from the VFS through the filesystem to sget().

I'm reluctant to add this flag till that point until that time unless we error
out if the flag is set against a legacy filesystem.
