No.  Per-file_system_type is way to coarse grained.  All feature flag
needs to be per-file_operation at least for cases like ext4 with our
without extents (or journal) XFS v4 vs v5, different NFS versions, etc.

For RWF_* each file operation simply declares if the feature is
supported not by rejecting unknown ones.  FIEMAP does the same as do
a few other interfaces.
