Instead of adding another ioctl, wouldn't an xattr be more appropriate?
For instance, system.fatattrs containing a text representation of the
attribute bits.
i.e.
a = archive
d = directory
h = hidden
r = read only
s = system
v = volume
6 = unused bit 6
7 = unused bit 7
and
bash-3.00$ getfattr -n system.fatattrs dosfile.txt
# file: dosfile.txt
system.fatattrs="ar"
bash-3.00$
