I was pondering this too, on one hand it's the thing we're using, otoh
it's a direct consequence of the private flag, and the private flag has a
bit the clearer control flow I think - the obj->filp is clear that it's a
NULL check, but it's a lot less clear _why_ it is ok to have obj->filp ==
NULL. Checking for private makes this a bit clearer imo.

But yeah I considered both options. Maybe we should improve the comment in
a follow-up patch? I want to land the bugfix meanwhile, to close the
regression.
