maybe just 2 values, with the actual supported features (& features2)
values anded together?  Easy enough to parse in the code.

i.e.

# cat /proc/fs/xfs/features
0xffffffff
0x00000001

hm, but of course mkfs should never be checking for anything in the
first features slot; yesterday's kernels support all those flags but
don't export anything.

Bzzzzt!

IRIX/ASCII case-insensitive mode (or OLDCI or "V1 CI" as I'm calling it :) )
is in the first features slot - 0x4000

wow, this is starting to feel as complex as ext4's flags ;)
