Description

The function calls itself:

public static DocsEnum getTermDocsEnum(IndexReader r, Bits liveDocs, String field, BytesRef term) throws IOException

{ return getTermDocsEnum(r, liveDocs, field, term); }

The more conservative approach is to pass DocsEnum.FLAG_FREQS as last parameter so we can call the getTermDocsEnum(IndexReader r, Bits liveDocs, String field, BytesRef term, int flags).
