General question, not really patchset related.

Seeing this:

+		    !(fsp->posix_flags & FSP_POSIX_FLAGS_PATHNAMES) &&

would it makes sense for code readability to add a macro in a prominent place:

#define isflagset(flagfield, flag) (((flagfield) & (flag)) == (flag))

then use:

!isflagset(fsp->posix_flags, FSP_POSIX_FLAGS_PATHNAMES)
