But auto-fill-function is effectively synonymous with auto-fill-mode.
If the former is nil, the latter is disabled. If the former is non-nil,
the latter is enabled. There is no variable auto-fill-mode, only the
buffer-local variable auto-fill-function.
Users and modes that do not want to enable auto-fill-mode should not
make auto-fill-function non-nil.
Modes that want to provide a custom auto-fill function without enabling
auto-fill-mode should set normal-auto-fill-function buffer-locally
instead of auto-fill-function.
