Please do not introduce a new fs specific ioctls. There is already vfs-agnostic FS_IOC_SETFSLABEL ioctl, look at manpage: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/ioctl_fslabel.2.html
I have WIP patches which adds support for FS_IOC_SETFSLABEL ioctl into kernel vfat driver. But it is not possible to implement this ioctl properly until issues with encoding are fixed in vfat driver. Some of dependency patches I have sent to ML as RFC series: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210808162453.1653-1-pali@kernel.org/
If you have a time and motivation, I can send you my unfinished WIP patches which implements FS_IOC_SETFSLABEL ioctl for vfat.
