Hi--

I would say let's fix the sentence grammar, but I don't know
what "cleared set" means.

It should be more like:

	 * Were any of the 'flush_on_clear' flags changed between

X86 people, does that make sense to you?

It’s not a test whether the flags are changed, but whether they are cleared.

Let’s see if we can make it clearer with shorter sentences. How about:
“Consider the ‘flush_on_clear’ flags that are set on ‘oldflags’; Flush if
any of these flags is cleared on ’newflags’”.
