gfs2: Automatically set GFS2_DIF_SYSTEM flag on system files
When new files and directories are created inside a parent directory
we automatically inherit the GFS2_DIF_SYSTEM flag (if set) and assign
it to the new file/dirs.
All new system files/dirs created in the metafs by, say gfs2_jadd,
will have this flag set because they will have parent directories in
the metafs whose GFS2_DIF_SYSTEM flag has already been set (most likely
by a previous mkfs.gfs2)
