Someone writes the patches+tests and everything, gets it all reviewed and
I'll merge it.

I'd prefer if we could do this with the cmd parser, but that thing seems
to be eternally stuck. So a new execbuf flag is imo ok too. execbuf
already tracks a few other lonesome bits and makes sure userspace actually
gets the setting it requests, so should work out.
