Subject: [PATCH 01/18] flag parameters: helper function

In the following patches we have to map one set of flags to another one
in numerous locations.  This patch provides a generic implementation for
this.  It is basically the code Davide Libenzi suggested on 4/27/08.

I haven't checked whether this functionality can be applied to any existing
code.
