Nope, that's not an option obviously. The ioctls only exist
on the Linux userspace client side. Inside cifsfs they get
converted to standard SMB1/2/3 calls.

I'm trying to create a way for Linux userspace to get
access to these Windows/Mac/Samba features without having
to completely change the VFS model to introduce the
horrible Solaris semantics of opening a file as a
directory to get access to internal streams.
