Ok, will do.

Sorry if this wasn't clear.  How about this?

/*
 * These flags signal that the caller is ok with altering various aspects of
 * the behavior of the remap operation.  The changes must be made by the
 * implementation; the vfs remap helper functions can take advantage of them.
 * Flags in this category exist to preserve the quirky behavior of the hoisted
