This is similar to existing F_{SET/GET}_RW_HINT but more
generic/extensible.
F_SET/GET_RW_HINT_EX take a pointer to a struct rw_hint_ex as argument:
struct rw_hint_ex {
__u8 type;
__u8 pad[7];
__u64 val;
};
With F_SET_RW_HINT_EX, the user passes the hint type and its value.
Hint type can be either life hint (TYPE_RW_LIFE_HINT) or placement hint
(TYPE_RW_PLACEMENT_HINT). The interface allows to add more hint types in
future.
Valid values for life hints are same as enforced by existing
fcntl(F_SET_RW_HINT).
Valid values for placement hints are between 0 to 127, both inclusive.
The inode retains either the life hint or the placement hint, whichever
is set later. The set hint type and its value can be queried by
F_GET_RW_HINT_EX.
The i_write_hint field of the inode is a 1-byte field. Use the most
significant bit as the hint type. This bit is set for placement hint.
For life hint, this bit remains zero.
