In other patches in this patchset you use 'if (flags != 0)'; I don't
care too much which approach you take, but please be consistent.

Actually, I guess you might as well just go with 'if (flags)' since
I'm pretty sure someone later down the line will end up wasting
reviewer time by changing '(flags != 0)' into '(flags)' ...
