This adds a flag that tells the file system that this is a high priority
request for which it's worth to poll the hardware.  The flag is purely
advisory and can be ignored if not supported.

I'm not in love with the HIGHPRI name, but I don't have a better one in

I don't really like it too much either.  So if someone else has a better
