[PATCH v8 02/17] fs: Add case sensitivity flags to file_kattr

[Chuck Lever <cel@kernel.org>]

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

Enable upper layers such as NFSD to retrieve case sensitivity
information from file systems by adding FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD and
FS_XFLAG_CASENONPRESERVING flags.

Filesystems report case-insensitive or case-nonpreserving behavior
by setting these flags directly in fa->fsx_xflags. The default
(flags unset) indicates POSIX semantics: case-sensitive and
case-preserving. These flags are read-only; userspace cannot set
them via ioctl.

Case sensitivity information is exported to userspace via the
fa_xflags field in the FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR ioctl and file_getattr()
system call.
