While I was working on extending [1] LTP ioctl_ficlone03.c to run on more
filesystems [2], I found that ext[2-4] don't support FS_IMMUTABLE_FL.

	immut_fd = open(MNTPOINT"/immutable", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0640);
	mnt_file = open(MNTPOINT"/file", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0640);
	int attr = FS_IMMUTABLE_FL;
	ioctl(immut_fd, FS_IOC_SETFLAGS, &attr);
	...

	struct file_clone_range *clone_range;
	ioctl(immut_fd, FICLONE, mnt_file),
	ioctl(immut_fd, FICLONERANGE, clone_range),

The last two ioctl() with FICLONE and FICLONERANGE get errno EOPNOTSUPP (instead
of EPERM as on other fs). Cyril raised concern [3], why first ioctl()
FS_IOC_SETFLAGS even works. Shouldn't it also gets EINVAL as vfat, exfat and
ntfs get?

There is not any info in dmesg.

Thanks for any hint.

Kind regards,
Petr
