Commit 5f89154e8e ("block: Use enum to define RQF_x bit
indexes") converted the RQF flags to an anonymous enum, which was
a beneficial change. This patch goes one step further by naming the enum
as "rqf_flags".
This naming enables exporting these flags to BPF clients, eliminating
the need to duplicate these flags in BPF code. Instead, BPF clients can
now access the same kernel-side values through CO:RE (Compile Once, Run
Everywhere), as shown in this example:
rqf_stats = bpf_core_enum_value(enum rqf_flags, __RQF_STATS)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
