We have flags for sqes, depending on the type. You can add to the
union that already holds rw_flags/fsync_flags/poll_events? There's
also a (smaller) flags field that applies for all types, which
currently only holds the fixed file flag.

If you're talking on a per-syscall type of flag, io_uring_enter(2)
does take a flags member.
