Sorry, you can't just change a read-only field (i.e. set by the driver) to
something that can be set by the application as well. That can easily cause
problems: e.g. applications that leave the flags field uninitialized.
I will try to look at alternatives tomorrow, but this approach is definitely
a no-go.
Regards,
Hans
