Nope.  It ended up in nd->intent.open.flags due to path_lookup_open().
Then lookup_instantiate_filp() from a filesystem that might care about
intents did
        nd->intent.open.file = __dentry_open(dget(dentry), mntget(nd->mnt),
                                             nd->intent.open.flags - 1,
                                             nd->intent.open.file,
                                             open);
and nameidata_to_filp() ended up picking nd->intent.open.file.

So f_flags is exactly where that thing used to end up, if it ended up
anywhere at all.
