It is not about where it is used, it is about if it is part of the
uapi or not. Cleanly separating uapi from not uapi

from the commit message:

"

This cleanly splits out the uverbs flags from the kernel flags to avoid
confusion in the flags bitmap.

"

so it was not clear, at least to me, that some user flags are part of both the uapi and the kapi.

maybe worth mentioning that or split the uapi and kapi altogether.

Anyway looks good for iser/srp/nvmf,
