The flags should be displayed in fdinfo, as different flags
could affect the behavior of eventfd.

EFD_CLOEXEC and EFD_NONBLOCK are mapped to generic O_* flags and are
included in fdinfo output already:

pos:    0
flags:  02000002 -> O_CLOEXEC/EFD_CLOEXEC | O_RDWR
mnt_id: 15
ino:    12497
eventfd-count:                0
eventfd-id: 156

So the only thing you really care about is EFD_SEMAPHORE. Since this
changes the type of the eventfd I would just do either:

eventfd-semaphore: {0,1}

or - if we can reasonably expect a third type:

eventfd-type: {0, ..., n}

though I suspect since it hasn't changed since 2.6-something that
eventfd-semaphore: {0,1} is probably fine.





so you only really care about EFD_SEMAPHORE.
