As you should be able to tell from the name, it's a set of flags.

Because otherwise a lot more code would have to change.

Look, Andy, this is a pretty tiny part of the patchset, yet it's been
eating up a pretty disproprortionate amount of time and your review
feedback has been pretty unhelpful - asking for things to be broken up
in ways that would not be bisectable, or (as here) re-asking the same
things that I've already answered and that should've been obvious.

The code works. If you wish to complain about anything being broken, or
if you can come up with anything more actionable than what you've got
here, I will absolutely respond to that, but otherwise I'm just going to
leave things where they sit.
