Kerneldoc review seems to still be missing. One case that needs to be
updated is this note here. But there's a pile of other places where we
reference one of the mode_valid or mode_fixup functions, and they should
all be updated.

Also, it'd be good to explain what to put into mode_valid and what to put
into mode_fixup, for objects which have both. I can help with this, but I
think it'd be good if you make a first round, since that might catch some
interactions we've missed.

Thanks, Daniel
