I think it concerns all the fp_exclude_* ones which are not using find_value_cmp,
those already have +/- functionality. 

so just a quick grep without deep analysis of each:
				 fp_exclude_pattern:1,
				 fp_exclude_type:1,
				 fp_exclude_obd:1,
				 fp_exclude_mdt:1,
				 fp_exclude_gid:1,
				 fp_exclude_uid:1,
				 fp_exclude_pool:1,
				 fp_exclude_layout:1,
				 fp_exclude_projid:1,
				 fp_exclude_comp_id:1,
				 fp_exclude_hash_type:1,

I expect stripe size to be 1 MiB, and if I can search for ! that, then I can find users who set weird stripe sizes and help them fix it.
