Is this really so urgent?

[trondmy@lade linux-2.6]$ git grep FATTR4_WORD2 fs/nfs include/linux
include/linux/nfs4.h:#define FATTR4_WORD2_SUPPATTR_EXCLCREAT (1UL << 11)
include/linux/nfs4.h:#define FATTR4_WORD2_LAYOUT_BLKSIZE     (1UL << 1)

IOW: we don't appear to be using any of those bits, and so the current
default behaviour of just ignoring any bitmap values that we don't
recognise would seem to be sufficient.

Cheers
