  I have noticed one thing you apparently changed in v7 of the patch set.
See below.

  How did FS_PROJINHERIT_FL get here? There used to be 0x20000000 in older
version of the patch set which is correct - this definition is defining
ext4 on-disk format. As such it is an ext4 specific flag and should be
definined to a fixed constant independed of any other filesystem. It seems
you are somewhat mixing what is an on-disk format flag value and what is a
flag value passed from userspace. These two may be different things and you
need to convert between the values when getting / setting flags...
