Custom ioctls
=============
Anything that's not doing the other features and stands on it's own
- reverse lookup, from file offset to inode
- resolve inode number -> name
- file offset -> all inodes that share it
- tree search, all the metadata at your hand (if you know what to do with them)
- informative (device, fs, space)
- query/set a subset of features on a mounted fs
