Not to be pedantic, but should this allow "ignore_errors", since it will
presumably ignore more than one error.  If already using "ignore_error"
in the field you could accept both for some time until able to change over,
as we've done with "ea_inode" vs. "large_xattr" in the Lustre e2fsprogs
for years.
