Agreed. Fixed in v4

No, not as far as I'm aware. This check is there to prevent userspace from
polluting the bitspace of flag, so that all free bits can be used for new flags.

As far as I understand this is pointed out by a drm driver development document
written by danvet, which I unfortunately can't seem to find the link for at the
moment.
