Hi, attached is a port of the previous patch for ext3 to ext4. Honza -- Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> SuSE CR Labs
Propagate flags such as S_APPEND, S_IMMUTABLE, etc. from i_flags into ext4-specific i_flags. Hence, when someone sets these flags via a different interface than ioctl, they are stored correctly.
