I guess. You don't think it's a little iffy though, since there were
other flags which were added before this? So effectively userspace
queries SUPPORTED_FLAGS and might get -EINVAL on older kernels, even
though the flag is supported on that kernel(like READONLY)?

Maybe a versioning scheme instead? I915_PARAM_USERPTR_VERSION? Seems
quite common for other params.
