Subject: [PATCH] chattr: provide an exit code in case of failure and add -f flag
Fix chattr so that if there are errors, it will report it via a
non-zero exit code. It will now explicitly give errors when
attempting to set files that are not files or directories (which are
currently not supported under Linux). The -f flag will suppress error
messages from being printed, although the exit status will still be
non-zero.
