That comes from these lines in syscall_arg__scnprintf_mount_flags:
if ((flags & MS_MGC_MSK) == MS_MGC_VAL)
flags &= ~MS_MGC_MSK;
The reason for this is explained in the comment for do_mount in fs/namespace.c:
/*
* Pre-0.97 versions of mount() didn't have a flags word.
* When the flags word was introduced its top half was required
* to have the magic value 0xC0ED, and this remained so until 2.4.0-test9.
* Therefore, if this magic number is present, it carries no information
* and must be discarded.
*/
(I used a bind mount for my commit message example because a "default" mount()
doesn't use any flags.)

LGTM. Thanks
