From: David Howells on
Rearrange the constituent bits of i_flags to be consistent with the flag values
returned by the FS_IOC_GETFLAGS ioctl where flags with common meanings occur.
Otherwise pack the bits of i_flags as low as possible so that RISC CPUs can
use small instructions.

This allows those filesystems that use i_flags (Ext2/3/4) to simplify their
get/set flags routines.
