I took a look - don't think we can make it an enum. See
include/linux/btf.h:

      /* These need to be macros, as the expressions are used in assembler input */
      #define KF_ACQUIRE      (1 << 0) /* kfunc is an acquire function */
      #define KF_RELEASE      (1 << 1) /* kfunc is a release function */
      [..]

Could do some redefines but maybe not worth it. The new flag is a pretty
deep impl detail anyways.

Thanks,
Daniel
