They were exposed to userspace already

So the script carries the bug into a new directory... why? AFAIK,
intentionally there's no way to read private flags from user space, so
what's the point in defining them there?

How should the script know what's private and what's not?  By the
encapsulation of code inside __KERNEL__ blocks.  In their absence, everything
is assumed to be public - given it is already part of the UAPI.  I don't know
that the code is private rather than the comment is wrong.
