flags == 0 means "no extra modifiers of behavior". That's default
adaptive notification. If you want to adjust default behavior, only
then you specify non-zero flags. I don't think anyone will bother
typing BPF_RB_MAY_WAKEUP for this, nor I think it's really needed. The
documentation update is nice (if no flags are specified notification
will be sent if needed), but the new "pseudo-flag" seems like an
overkill to me.
