I'm not sure what you mean. UBLK_IO_F_INTEGRITY is a per-I/O flag set
in struct ublksrv_io_desc's op_flags field. Are you suggesting adding
a separate feature flag for integrity? I can do that, but I didn't
originally because none of the other UBLK_PARAM_TYPE_* flags have
associated features.

Sure, I can mention that UBLK_PARAM_TYPE_INTEGRITY requires a nonzero
metadata size. Would you prefer that metadata_size == 0 be supported?
It would be a bit more code, but certainly possible.
