I'm confused.  I've noticed that files on ntfs
mounts can provide 0x800 (IN_HASHED) or 0x8000
(IN_LOADED) in the st_flags field returned from stat(2).

Why?

These bits aren't documented in sys/stat.h and
aren't recognized in any current utility as far as
I can tell.  Is there any reason they should be
exposed to user space?  If they do need to be
exposed to user space, shouldn't they be at least
documented in sys/stat.h?
