I'd rather say they are placeholders for message types that have never
been sent by the kernel - and nothing changes in that respect after
the $subject patch.  They have been unused so far and they are still
unused (it is easier to figure that out through code inspection,
however).

And even though it is unlikely that they will be used in the future,
it is not entirely unimaginable.
