A flag query helper was actually writing to the flags word rather than
just reading. Fix that. Also update the function's comment as it was
out of date.

Looks important - what are the consequences?
Supposedly nothing.

The test was only ever used inside a BUG_ON during context registration. Rather than asserting that the condition was true, it was making the condition true. So, in theory, there was no consequence because we should never have hit a BUG_ON anyway. Which means the write should always have been a no-op.


Needs Cc: stable for 5.16?
Meaning "Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>"? Or is there anything required to specify 5.16?

It would have been:

Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # v5.16+

You can use "dim fixes <sha>" and it will output you the suggested tags.

But given what you say about it having no impact even in debug builds then it's not needed. Just note that explaining the impact in the commit message when Fixes: tag is present is very desirable in general. Without it maintainers have a hard time assessing and highlighting important stuff in pull requests. So I would at least ask for respin with updated commit message explaining there is no consequence and why cc stable is not needed.
