Can you elaborate to what kind of per buffer controls are you referring to?
Using optional meta data planes is expected to be a proper way to do such
things. Either to pass meta data from application to driver or in the opposite
direction.

I can't see how the per buffer controls can be dependent on a per file handle
control support. Perhaps this is only specific to some selected devices.
